Lambda, GLSEN, and City Year Fight Teen Bullying
Dec 4th
Bullying of LGBT teens has been in the news a lot recently, and it’s something that most LGBT individuals have experienced in their own lives. In addition to hosting panels and discussion groups about legal approaches to the problem, Lambda collaborated with GLSEN and City Year this month to run an anti-bullying training program for over 100 educators and after-school program leaders. Though we were horrified by some of the stories we heard from the participants, we were proud to give these educators resources and advice for making their schools places of diversity and acceptance.
Learn more about GLSEN and City Year, two organizations on the forefront of fighting for inclusive education.
