How can tribal communities welcome their Two-Spirit relatives back into their circles? What can child welfare agencies do to create a safe and welcoming environment? How can those who work with youth protect and support the Two-Spirit/Native LGBTQIA+ individuals in their care? Guest speakers offer recommendations and strategies for participants to address these questions within their own organizations and communities.
