Project Report | May 24, 2016
another successful school year

By Lori Nelson | Associate Executive Director

We are closing in on the end of the school year and want to pause to thank you for helping us make 2015/2016 a huge success!

  • We trained 278 K-12 teachers this school year!
  • 91.7% of teachers who attended the trainings indicated that they believe they will be more effective intervening in homophobic bias and conflict as a result of the training.  
  • We had our largest cast ever and every one of them was thrilled to be a part of the program!
  • We expanded the training to cover more about transgender students and transphobia in schools. We have found that we need to start with some pretty detailed information about bathroom usage laws and dispel some myths! 
  • We are proud to have added Teach for America to our client list and look forward to doing more with them!

Now we are in the midst of interviewing and auditioning students for our next cast. We were able to accept 6 students who were still on the waiting list from 2014/2015 and will add more students in the coming weeks.

Thanks again for your support for this unique and effective approach to ending homophobic bullying and making schools safer for all LGBTPQ++ students!
