Tackling LGBT Issues in School

Whether you are a teacher, administrator, student or parent, this manual is designed to help you work toward the common goal of ending homophobia in schools.

Tackling LGBT Issues in School is an updated version of the acclaimed Tackling Gay Issues in School with more inclusive resources, reorganized materials, updated resources and much more. A binder of 125 pages, Tackling is a comprehensive resource module divided into four unique sections:

• Rationale for the inclusion of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender issues in schools
• Recommended Curriculum and Staff Development Activities
• Extracurricular Activities
• Resources

As the author explains, "In a culture that is almost uniformly homophobic and heterosexist, gay youth face rejection, isolation, verbal harassment and physical violence at home, in school and in religious institutions. Homophobia undermines the ability of all youth to participate effectively in education. It's our responsibility to ensure that all students have the same right to an equal education."
