Raising Queer, Bisexual, and Pansexual Youth
In this 90-minute educational workshop, participants will learn about:
- The difference between sex, gender, and sexuality
- The difference between sexual/romantic identity and orientation
- Expansive identities and fluidity
- Often overlooked identities: asexuality and demisexuality
- Biphobia, queerphobia, and homophobia
- The unique needs of QT-BIPOC* youth
- Ways to support queer, bi, pan, and ace children and teens
*We’re using the term QT-BIPOC as a placeholder for queer and trans youth with multiple racial, ethnic, cultural, and ancestral identities. We recognize the multiplicities of differences in both the current experiences and histories of those who are often included in this acronym and will address this during the workshop.
