LGBTQ+ Glossary of terminology

I deliver training on LGBTQ+ awareness to all types professionals who work with young people as we’ll as more detailed training on how to tackle homophobia and transphobia in youth work settings. A big part of these training sessions is about getting the language and terminology right to ensure your organisation or service is inclusive of LGBTQ+ young people. I created a helpful glossary sheet that defines all the different sexualities and gender identities.

I wrote a blog post on the importance of ‘coming out’ as a gay youth worker in order to challenge heteronormativity - you can read it here.
