Abstract

Gender and sexual diversity (GSD) needs to be identifiable, included in curriculum, and accepted in schools. School leaders need to advocate for policies to include a queer-inclusive curriculum. A gay-straight alliance is an extra-curricular group that promotes diversity and supports gender and/or sexually diverse students. Schools need to support GSD in the curriculum and resources. GSD needs to be a priority for schools to include for gender and/or sexually diverse students to feel welcome.
