LGBTIQA+ Youth Inclusiveness Resources
LGBTIQA+ young people continue to be exposed to stigma, discrimination, harassment and safety concerns, which significantly impacts their health and wellbeing.
To help young people improve their safety and acceptance within their schools and communities, 2Connect, in conjunction with Kogarah Community Services, has put together this document full of useful resources including language guides, sample school inclusion policies, helpful websites and more to assist with LGBTIQA+ youth inclusiveness.
LGBTIQA+ Service Directory
Created in conjunction with Kogarah Community Services, we have put together an LGBTIQA+ Services Directory full of youth support services, social groups, cultural specific services and special days and events for those in the LGBTIQA+ community and their friends and families.
