LGBTQ+ Affirming Early Childhood Practices

Together, we can build Early Childhood experiences in which children of all genders and family backgrounds can thrive, develop empathy, and celebrate diversity. In this session we will explore age-appropriate LGBTQ-affirming educational practices, using and modeling LGBTQ-affirming language, answering questions, and navigating pushback as we build LGBTQ-affirming classrooms. This is the second of a two-part session, the first of which will be led by Eliana Rubin on January 13th from 3:00-4:00 PM ET.
