  • Summary

  • Today, parents of LGBTQ+ youth today are no longer worried about the other kids at school, this year we’re way more concerned about the other adults in the room with our children every day. Will my child be ridiculed by a teacher or staff member? Will their pronouns be respected? Will they be told they can’t dress a certain way or not allowed to use restrooms? So, how can we support our vulnerable kids legally, emotionally, and physically? My guest, Elena Joy Thurston (she/her), is here to share how you can find this knowledge and support.


    In this episode, we cover:

    • How Elena addresses barriers to information access for parents of LGBTQ+ youth
    • One of the most impactful strategies for holding adults accountable in schools
    • Three different types of energy that we feel when we want to speak up
    • The difference between Gen X and Gen Z in the workplace
