Participants will have a few minutes to review a list of terms and definitions associated with gender and attraction to familiarize themselves with core concepts, including intersex and transgender. Then, participants will be invited to complete a personal bias reflection to deepen their awareness of their own values and beliefs. We will close the session by reflecting on how bias might show up, how we can mitigate its impact, and how we can proactively support LGBTQ+ young folks in our spaces. A guiding value for this session was that all families deserve to feel safe, welcome, and represented in Colorado schools.
