Free Webinar on GLBTQ Youth
Leah Langby
June 4, 2012
Keeping Up With Kids

I got this in a PUBYAC post–it seems like there would be some relevant information for librarians in this webinar, too.  You can only register right before the webinar, so mark your calendar for Wednesday if you have time.  I’ll try to “attend” and sum up some of the points in a future blog post.
On June 6, 2012, at 1 pm CST, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) will present the Webinar, “Understanding and Overcoming the Challenges Faced by Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender,Questioning and Intersex (LGBTQI) Youth in Schools and Communities.” Presenters will discuss the importance of changing perceptions, practices, and culture to address the needs of these underserved youth. Future webinars will discuss LGBTQI youth and their families and LGBTQI youth in juvenile justice settings.

Registration is available online the day of the event
