About this Event

Many workforce organizations are not aware of or able to support LGBTQ+ youth with the unique challenges they face when entering the workforce, from pronouns to identification to navigating homophobia and transphobia. This workshop will provide participants with concrete information and ways to help navigate these waters, drawn directly from questions and needs articulated by LGBTQ+ youth. Participants will learn how to help LGBTQ+ youth navigate the workforce world.
