Thinking Strategically: Developing an Ally Engagement Strategy for Your PFLAG Chapter
Be Kind, Rewind: Recognizing Your Role in Building Inclusion Recording & Training Toolkit
Nearly everyone strives to be a more inclusive, kind leader, but getting it right is rarely easy. We are all products of our upbringing, environments, (un)conscious biases, and daily stressors. And while we may intend on being welcoming and inclusive, the impact of our actions may not be. In this learning session participants will focus on learning from the past, understanding the present, and clearly defining action items that will create positive change in the future.
Thanks for participating in PFLAG Academy Online! One of our key goals is to help you take the information that you learned in this session and use it to make your chapter stronger and more effective. To do that, we’ve created this page to provide you with tools, resources, and references to materials mentioned in the workshop. As always, the PFLAG National staff is here to help. If you have any questions, comments, or just need some good advice, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
