May 17th: Making our schools safe for LGBTQ youth w/ Jeannie Senter + support groups
How do we make our schools safer for ALL kids, including our LGBTQ children?
For over a decade, Jeannie has been working to make our Atlanta area schools safer and a bullying-free zone. If you would like to find out how you can make your own school a safer place, come listen to Jeannie talk about the work she has been doing as PFLAG Atlanta’s Safe Schools Coordinator and working with the Georgia Safe Schools Coalition. She will take questions after her comments. Come join us!

In support groups, we share our stories but do not counsel. Everything that is said within the group remains confidential.
