Stand Up Awareness Week – LGBTI+ Resource and Training for School Staff

Stand Up Awareness Week – LGBTI+ Resource and Training for School Staff

Stand Up Awareness Week is a time for second-level schools, youth services, and Youthreach in Ireland to join BeLonG To Youth Services and take a stand against homophobic, biphobic and transphobic bullying. This week is an opportunity to take steps to make spaces safe and supportive for LGBTI+ young people. We will equip you with the resources, tools, and knowledge needed to host Stand Up Awareness Week in your school, youth service, or Youthreach from November 15-19th, 2021.

Training: To help prepare for the event, we are offering free online LGBTI+ Workshops in October to equip you with the tools and knowledge to feel confident hosting Stand Up Awareness Week. Secure your place and sign up today: https://www.belongto.org/professionals/standup/
