Parent Toolkit
The goal of this Toolkit for LGBTTQ Parents/Guardians and its companion, Toolkit for Educators and Service Providers, is to provide information and resources to help both parents and educators create safe, nurturing and inclusive learning environments for all children. An important part of this process is to share knowledge about glbttq parents, their children and their unique issues.
A Resource Kit accompanies this toolkit and includes extra tools, handouts, resources and websites. The companion Toolkit for Educators and Service Providers includes many of the same sections, with additional information on the educational environment, creating inclusive curriculum and encouraging change from within the school and preschool systems.
It is hoped that these toolkits will encourage and enable dialogue between parents, teachers and child care providers. Our goal is to help develop both the skills and the confidence needed to design strategies that respond to the needs and desires of lgbttq families and children in the school and preschool settings.
