| Summary |
This book is designed to help youth care providers increase their knowledge and skills in working with gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, and questioning (GLBTQ) youth and their families in a variety of settings. In an easy-to-read question-and-answer format, the book provides basic information about working with this often invisible population and focuses on important issues surrounding the coming out process; family relations; discrimination and antigay violence; creating healthy social environments for GLBTQ youth; relationships and dating; and an array of specific, unique issues for GLBTQ youth and youth workers who work with them in residential, school, health, and mental health settings. It also contains a resource list of readings, videos, websites, and program services. |
