All are welcome to attend! MASC and Divisions IV, VII, and X (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) are sponsoring a special Zoom Information Session for Monday, October 30 at 11:30AM on Promoting Resilience and Healthy Outcomes for LGBTQ Students. The program will be hosted by Landon Callahan in collaboration with Jason Wheeler and Jeff Perrotti and is a follow up to their earlier session a few weeks ago.

By the end of this workshop, participants will:
- Be able to articulate and use correct LGBTQ terms and definitions
- Understand the experiences of LGBTQ students and families
- Have reviewed ESE policy guidance as it relates to students, families and staff
- Be aware of the factors that promote resilience and positive outcomes for LGBTQ Students
