Understanding the Guidelines

Creating Learning Environments that Respect Diverse Sexual Orientations, Gender Identities and Gender Expressions

Welcome

There are a lot of questions about GSAs and the Alberta Government’s “Guidelines for Best Practices: Creating Learning Environments that Respect Diverse Sexual Orientations, Gender Identities and Gender Expressions” which was released on January 16, 2016.

This is a place where you can get information about the importance of GSAs and these guidelines, and the difference they will make in the lives of LGBTQ students and their school community.


In this video created by the Centre for Sexuality (formerly Calgary Sexual Health Centre), a young student shares their experience with joining a GSA and the impact it has had on their life.
