The workshops provided by Around the Rainbow are designed to engage schools, service providers and organizations in learning about the diversity of sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression.
Our workshops and resources are tailored to meet the learning goals of each organization and to support organizations and individuals to develop approaches to foster LGBTQ+ inclusive environments.

Workshops help participants:
 Understand the difference between sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression
 Identify common terminology to express sexual orientation and gender identity, including gender-neutral language and pronouns
 Learn about provincial and federal protections regarding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression
 Recognize & reduce heteronormativity, transphobia and microaggressions
 Create a safe and LGBTQ+ inclusive environment
