That’s SO Gay!

presented by:  Alberto Cifuentes, Jr., LMSW

In this workshop, participants will be introduced to the diverse and effective resources and programs GLSEN offers to youth workers as well as some strategies for becoming a better ally to LGBTQ students.  More specifically, participants will learn about GLSEN and GLSEN Connecticut; discuss homophobia and transphobia as well as anti-LGBTQ bullying/harassment in a safe, nonjudgemental space; and identify specific tools and methods for making schools and organizations safe for ALL students, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity/expression.

He has been a member of the GLSEN Connecticut Board of Directors for nearly twelve years and currently serves as the chapter’s Co-Chair, coordinating professional development and community outreach activities.
