Schedule

10:00-12:00    Robin McHaelen, Executive Director of True Colors, Inc.
Libraries are a place where children's imaginations take flight. Books, programming, and activities launch possibility into motion. Children are free to dream big dreams of who they can become in the world.  That magic happens in part because children seem themselves reflected in the images and stories around them.  But what about the LGBTQ youth and families your library serves? Do they see themselves in your stories and on your shelves?
In addition to covering the basics (terms and definitions), this 2 hour workshop will explore teaching tips and strategies for inclusivity, offer participants the opportunity to share ideas for increasing awareness and empathy, and provide a short list of some of the best resources in books and videos.

12:00-1:00    Lunch is provided
