Product Description

This newly-created program aims to help practitioners improve their ability to attract, engage, and advocate on behalf of members of the LGBTQAI+ community. Practitioners learn how to effectively work with members of this community by understanding some of the unique and nuanced needs that present. We discuss language and terminology and other cultural/societal changing norms that are important to understand when representing members of this community.
