LGBT Cultural Competency Training
January 22 1-2:30 on ZOOM
Gaining cultural competence is a lifelong process of increasing self-awareness, developing social skills and behaviors around diversity, and gaining the ability to advocate for others. It goes beyond tolerance, which implies that one is simply willing to overlook differences. Instead, it includes recognizing and respecting diversity through our words and actions in all contexts.
Here is a brief outline:1. Introductions and purpose for our conversations
2. Overview on LGBTQ identities and key terms
3. Intersections of identity
4. Understanding societal oppression of LGBTQ+ identities (homophobia, heterosexism, heteronormativity)
5. Use of language and resources
6. Intentional steps that political leaders can consider integrating
7. Making mistakes (understanding microaggressions)
8. Review of allyship checklist
