There are many providers who are supporting LGBTQ+ clients in environments that are anti-LGBTQ+. This may be a home, a town, or even a state that does not have comprehensive protections for LGBTQ+ people. This session will cover how to balance asking about SOGI while maintaining the client’s privacy and safety. This workshop is presented by Innovations Institute's Angela Weeks and Elliott Hinkle from Unicorn Solutions.
This workshop is part of the Learning Community on Safe and Effective LGBTQ+ Data Collectiion. The series provides learners with the opportunity to hear from experts in the field on serving LGBTQ+ populations and on collecting sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) data in safe and effective ways. Participants can engage in monthly presentations and quarterly office hours, and get early release access to helpful tools such as a self-assessment, tip sheets, and supervisor’s guides. Visit the Learning Community to listen to recordings of past workshops and see the upcoming schedule.
