The purpose of this training is to provide local organizations often called upon as an LGBTQ2SIA+ resource an opportunity to become certified in facilitating a research-based, best practice focused workshop regarding youth safety and resiliency. 

Coaching Leaders shares their More Than a Rainbow Workshop agenda with participants and helps them grow their facilitation skills and knowledge around research and best practices to introduce educators, counselors, case workers and youth providers to issues concerning LGBTQ2SIA+ youth so they may develop skills to work effectively with all youth in their care.

Participants receive a training agenda and materials necessary to facilitate the workshop, as well as a facilitator’s guide.
