The purpose of this "Equity Tool" is to provide explicit guidance and resources for the facilitation of a professional learning experience to educate staff in schools about LGBTQ+ students in rural communities. It strives to support this effort by offering an introductory professional learning session for school personnel to engage in order to learn about the experiences, assets, and needs of LGBTQ+ youth toward becoming better allies and educators. This session should be used in conjunction with other efforts across schools and communities to create a safer and more supportive environment for LGBTQ+ youth.
