Engaging the LGBTQ+ Community Ally Training

Banner of LGBTQ Education and Ally Information Workshop with Dr. Todd Felts Headshot

This virtual training will provide awareness of how to work to build stronger community relationships with and for LGBTQ+ people. This training will provide participants knowledge of new, and emerging, aspects of the LGBTQ+ community using the gingerbread person. Using the spectrum of identity – what’s between the ears, between the legs, and in the heart – the goal of the training is to make it easier to become an ally for LGBTQ+ individuals to combat the politicization of queer people.

This training is ideal for individuals who care about the LGBTQ+ community but often do not know key terminology and feel a bit nervous having conversations about important issues.

The trainer for this session is Dr. Todd Felts, APR, an associate professor of journalism in the Reynolds School at UNR.
