Consultation and Programs

Dr. Jennifer Bryan provides educators, administrators, parents, trustees, and students with structured, dynamic opportunities for learning about Gender and Sexuality Diversity. These programs are highly informative and interactive. Dr. Bryan has particular skill in creating a safe, open learning environment where it is okay to know and not know, okay to take risks, to agree, to disagree, all in the service of personal, professional and institutional growth, understanding and clarification. While there may be a range of opinions and experiences related to Gender and Sexuality Diversity in any school, professional development programs, parent education workshops and student assemblies result in communities feeling better prepared, more comfortable, and more unified in their efforts.

Assessment

Scope and Sequence

Theoretical Approach

Methodology

Our entire faculty agrees that Jennifer Bryan was one of the best presenters we have ever had at Charles River School. Jennifer is a dynamic speaker who shares her vast knowledge with her audience in a clear, concise manner. Jennifer's humor and sensitivity set just the right tone and allowed us to engage in dialogue around some difficult and intense issues. more

Jennifer's workshop was the most productive and enjoyable professional development day we have had in the 17 years I've been at Calhoun! Jennifer takes a sensitive and sometimes difficult topic and provides a safe and comfortable forum for exploration and discussion. more
—Alison Max, Associate Director Lower School, The Calhoun School

Jennifer has an unusually even-handed ability to orchestrate a dialogue among a range of disparate voices. In working with our full faculty she somehow managed to affirm all of those voices - and also the tension between them. Her sense of humor regarding even the most sensitive aspects of sexuality repeatedly saved the day. more
