Supporting and Affirming LGBTQ+ Youth Training

This is a new training that Ampersand Families is offering to our families. It will focus on how to support and affirm a youth who identifies as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, or another identity in the LGBTQ+ community in an adoptive, pre-adoptive, or relative/kinship home. This training will also include strategies to implement in your home to create a welcoming and inclusive space regardless of the youth’s sexuality. This training will count for Agency Specific Training in both the home study licensing process and for training hours to renew a foster care license.
