Bullying Prevention: Supporting
LGBTQ Students
When: Tuesday,
Oct. 11
Time: 7 p.m.
EDT
Bullying can happen anywhere and to anyone. However,
depending on the environment, certain groups—such as LGBTQ students and students
who are perceived to be LGBTQ—are at a greater risk of being bullied. Creating a supportive school climate
for LGBTQ students improves educational outcomes for all students.
In recognition of National Bullying Prevention Month, please join National PTA and The Human Rights Campaign's Welcoming Schools Program for an Every Child In Focus Leadership Series webinar.
Attendees will gain an understanding of how to best support LGBTQ students
and reduce their risk of being bullied, as well as ways to advocate for all
students.
