Dealing with Difference: Opening Dialogue about Lesbian, Gay & Straight Issues

As schools work to reduce bullying and create safer climates for all, many educators are increasingly concerned about discrimination and harassment leveled against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) students. This video and print curriculum package is designed to foster healthy classroom dialogue around LGBT issues while informing everyone of the serious effects anti-LGBT harassment and bullying can have on all students. A mixture of dramatic vignettes and real teen discussion (including some GLSEN student organizers!) will encourage students to look at their own behavior as well at that of their peers. With over 80% of LGBT youth reporting verbal, sexual or physical harassment in schools, this video promises to be a useful tool in creating a safe and affirming school environment for all.
