LGBTQIA2S+ Communities and Identities: A Conversation about Inclusion and Equity
OnlineIn this session, we will discuss suggested practices to increase inclusion and equity specifically regarding LGBTQIA2S+ individuals via understanding relative language, concepts, common barriers, and sharing resources. We will explore LGBTQIA2S+ language and concepts such as biological/sex assigned at birth, gender identity, expression, and pronouns. We will look at introductory understandings of bias and learn about unique considerations for working with marginalized populations such as gender, sexual, racial, and ethnic minorities. Participants will have the opportunity to practice utilizing neutral pronouns, correcting missteps, addressing inaccuracies, and more.
