“Supporting Youth in Hostile Environments,” is dedicated to addressing the
unique challenges faced by LGBTQ2S+ youth in hostile environments. This
thought-provoking event aims to shed light on the experiences of youth and
explore strategies to support their well-being. Our panel of esteemed experts,
including advocates for LGBTQ2S+ youth and young people with lived
experience, will delve into the realities faced by LGBTQ2S+ youth in hostile
environments such as unsupportive families, schools, or communities.
Through insightful discussions and personal narratives, we will explore the
impact of hostility on their mental health, self-esteem, and overall
development. During the webinar, we will examine effective approaches and
practical tools to create safe spaces for LGBTQ2S+ youth, fostering
inclusivity, affirmation, and promoting acceptance. Attendees will gain a
deeper understanding of the unique needs of LGBTQ2S+ youth in hostile
environments, allowing them to be better allies and advocates for change.
