GLSEN

I attended a powerful talk Thursday night by Kevin Jennings, Founder and Executive Director of GLSEN (Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network) at the Caedmon School. "GLSEN is the leading national education organization focused on ensuring safe schools for ALL students." His research-based information helped the assembled group understand how children discover and better understand their own sexuality. Click over to their website and learn more. I would encourage schools to have him speak to faculty and parents.

I have used the GLSEN "lunch box" for years. The lunch box is a complete, helpful, guided resource which can encourage discussions and decisions. I have used it in two schools for the administrative retreat to great success in policy setting.
