Family connectedness and support is an important protective factor in the well-being of LGBT youth. However, many families and young people face challenges navigating their way to strong, affirming relationships. This training is geared towards a broad range of providers representing primary care, mental health, behavioral health, educators, community, clergy, etc. who work with LGBT youth and their families. A light lunch will be provided.
This 1-day training will be an introductory level exploration of working with LGBT clients. After a review of terms of relevance to LGBT clients, the presenter will give an overview of clinical issues faced by members of this population, including health disparities. Participants will learn skills to treat and advocate for the needs of LGBT clients. Case examples will be used to demonstrate effective care of LGBT clients.
