LGBT+ Affirming Schools

LGBT+ affirming schools actively create a safe, inclusive environment that respects and supports students of all gender identities and sexual orientations. They implement policies and practices that prevent discrimination and bullying, promote understanding through inclusive curricula, and provide resources like counseling and support groups. These schools aim to foster a sense of belonging, where LGBTQ+ students feel valued, affirmed, and able to thrive academically and socially without fear of prejudice or harassment. Ultimately, they contribute to healthier, more equitable educational spaces for everyone.
