Supporting the mental health of LGBTI+ young people
There are currently Zoom workshops scheduled for Tuesday, 24 November and Tuesday, 8 December. Places are limited (**Update: this course and waitlist are now full. We will make an announcement when we can open it up again. Thank you**)
To attend a workshop you must undertake the course beforehand. The course consists of:
- LGBTI+ Terminology
- Attitudes around LGBTI+ issues
- Mental health and LGBTI+ Young People
- Strategies for creating LGBTI+ safe and supportive spaces.
Once you have taken the online course and attended the workshop you will receive a certificate of completion.
Working with BeLonG To
Jigsaw and BeLonG To came together in 2016 to find a way to support LGBTI+ young people and their mental health. We co-designed a day-long workshop for those who work or volunteer with young people.
Since then, we have delivered this workshop 20 times in different locations around Ireland, to 336 adults who work or volunteer with young people.
