We network and support a wide variety of other glbtq youth groups - in and out of the school setting. During this exciting conference, students and their sponsors planned activities and strategies to enhance the GSAs at their schools. Plans are underway for two workshops during the 2000-2001 school year. At our request, Mayor Wellington Webb of Denver proclaimed October as Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual History Month. We disseminated materials to help schools recognize gay and lesbian history.
Topics vary according to request.
One meeting of note was a showing of A Journey to a Hate Free Millennium . Tracy Phariss was recently selected to help develop the curriculum material for this film. One of our most important networking projects is the Colorado Safe Schools Coalition. We discussed the role of confidentiality, public schools, and children with members of the Board of Directors of the Colorado Legal Initiative Project. We made a packet of information about the various scholarship offered by these organizations and we distributed it to every high school in Colorado.
