LGTBQIA+ Inclusion Training Program for Queensland community legal centres:
CLCQ are pleased to team up with Minus 18 to deliver a mini-program of two free 90 minute webinars to assist your community legal centre to create a safe and inclusive work environment for LGTBQIA+ staff, volunteers and clients. Workplaces have higher employee engagement and productivity when LGTBQIA+ people feel welcome and supported!
Whether it’s to inspire your team with the basics, refresh previous learnings, or deep dive into new ones – the knowledgeable trainers from Minus 18 are here to guide you to create LGTBQIA+ inclusion that makes your workplace better for everyone. Minus 18 engage with a light-hearted and interactive approach, with all content backed by up the latest research and best practice.
Following attendance at these sessions, participants will receive a professional development certificate from Minus 18 and your team will also receive an LGTBQIA+ Inclusion Action Kit to support ongoing change.
Session 1: Introduction to Sexuality & Gender
In the first session of our LGTBQIA+ Inclusion Training Program, Minus 18 will introduce participants to LGTBQIA+ identity, the barriers faced in everyday life, and empower your team with the tools to become inclusive leaders. You will leave the session understanding:
- The tools to build safe and inclusive experiences for colleagues and clients
- Key concepts and definitions of sex, gender and sexuality
- Evidence based barriers LGBTQIA+ people face at work and accessing services
- Practical tools to support LGBTQIA+ people interpersonally and professionally
- LGBTQIA+ lived-experiences via our expert workshop presenters as they talk about their personal journeys being LGTBQIA+.
These webinars were streamed live to workers and volunteers of Queensland community legal centres, but the presenters requested that recordings were not made.
