FREE FAMILY ACCEPTANCE PROJECT TRAINING ON HELPING DIVERSE FAMILIES TO SUPPORT THEIR LGBT CHILDREN

The Family Acceptance Project (FAP) is providing a free full-day training on April 25 in Detroit, MI for health, mental health, social service and school-based providers, families and religious leaders on FAP’s research-based family support approach for helping diverse families learn to support their LGBT children. A critical aspect of FAP's prevention and intervention approach is suicide prevention.

The training will include: learning about FAP’s foundational approaches to decrease family rejection and increase family support, including how to apply FAP’s key research findings and using FAP’s multicultural family education resources with diverse families; strategies for helping ethnically, racially and religiously diverse families to support their LGBT children; and helping providers and others to apply research-based FAP’s family support approach in diverse practice settings.

The training is free and offers 5 CEUs. For information on registering for the training contact: [email protected]
