Providing q***r-inclusive sexual health education isn’t just for the benefit of 2SLGBTQIA+ students—it benefits all learners in the classroom.

Dr. Jess Lougheed holds a PhD in Developmental Psychology and has academic expertise in topics related to adolescent development, emotions, family dynamics, mental health, and stress. Some of her recent research focuses on disparities in access to affirming and inclusive sexual health education. Join her as we discuss how disparities in accessing affirming & inclusive sexual health education can benefit all students and techniques to build q***r-affirming lesson plans and delivery styles!

Registration for this event is open and available on our website (link in bio)!
