Who

• These quarterly sessions are for anyone (LGBTQ+ or ally) who is looking to brush up on LGBTQ+ terminology, pronoun usage, and tips for what to do when mistakes are made (i.e.: misgendering, deadnaming, etc.).
• We all have to start somewhere and everyone could use a refresher – all levels of understanding are welcome to attend.

What to expect

• Informative session, with activities and group discussion.
• Space to ask potentially uncomfortable questions, free of judgement (great for parents of LGBTQ+ kids & partners of newly “out” LGBTQ+ folks).
• You’ll leave with a printed copy of the presentation and additional materials to assist with future questions.
• Beginning 2025:
  • Each class will require a $10 investment to reserve a seat – financial waiver available upon request.
    • We’ve experienced a disproportionate number of absences, and can no longer offer this class as a free resource.
  • Parent or guardian is required for attendees under 18 y/o.
