Gifted LGBTQ+ students deserve a positive educational experience while developing their identities. Educators and school personnel need to be prepared to support these students as they navigate harmful environmental conditions. In this session, we discuss how the principles of Trauma-Informed Care can support educators as they design inclusive environments that support all their students’ identities.
Learning Objectives:
Describe environmental factors that make a classroom welcoming for gifted students who identify as LGBTQ+.
Define key components of Trauma-Informed Care.
Integrate Trauma-Informed Care practices into the classroom to help LGBTQ+ gifted students embrace their identities.
