To celebrate Wear it Purple Day and the ongoing theme for 2022 of 'Still Me Still Human' the City is offering free PRISM LGBTIQA+ Inclusivity training facilitated by Twenty10 to build the capacity of community and not-for-profit organisations working with children and young people in the LGBTIQA+ and community sectors.

The three half day practical online workshops facilitated by Twenty10 build confidence in working with people of diverse genders, diverse sexualities and/or intersex status. This includes but is not limited to people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual (LGBTIQA+).

PRISM LGBTIQA+ Inclusivity training helps you explore how better practice principles can make a difference for you, your organisation or service when working with LGBTIQA+ people, including young people.

It introduces you to the latest research and thinking around inclusive practise as well as strategies to challenge homophobia, transphobia and heteronormativity so you can make a real difference for the people you work with and your community.

The workshops are free and held online. Participants are expected to attend all three sessions and registration is essential.

Places are limited to 2 people per organisation, and priority is given to community organisations that operate within the City of Sydney's local area.

The City of Sydney aims to deliver inclusive and accessible training sessions for all participants. If you have any access or communication needs, please contact Pip Ditzell, Social Programs Officer (LGBTIQA+), at 02 9265 9333 or pditzell@cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au to discuss further.
