ALT “How can sex education be made inclusive? Explain that sexual orientation and gender identity is determined by the individual and not on outward appearances.

Initiate de-stigmatizing conversations with all students about respecting identities.” written on a blue pink gradient with white illustrations.
ALT “Why is Planned Parenthood a safe place for LGBTQ+ patients? Using gender neutral & inclusive language. Example: All women, trans-men, nonbinary and gender-nonconforming people need access to safe and legal abortion. Building trust with patients. Research shows that transgender women and people on the trans feminine spectrum experience higher rates of discrimination and violence than cisgender women. Acknowledging both the intent and the impact of this work and providing comprehensive care for all. LGBTQ+ communities have been taken advantage of in medical history, leading to mistrust of medical treatment and advice.” written on a blue pink gradient with white illustrations.
