SOGI-Inclusive Resource Guide
The SOGI-Inclusive Education Resource Guide concisely shares the best practices of educators who have been actively supporting students of all Sexual Orientations and Gender Identities (SOGI) over the years.
While previous resources such as the SOGI Policy Guide focused on ‘what’ to include, this Resource Guide provides more details on ‘how’ to implement and support SOGI-inclusive education efforts. The BC K-12 SOGI Collaborative prioritized the development of the resource guide to support SOGI Leads who also contributed and provided substantial input.
The resource guide is available for download and explores SOGI-inclusive best practices in:
- Policies and Procedures
- SOGI Teams and Committees
- Professional Development
- Student Transitions
- Inclusive Facilities
- Rainbow Displays
This resource was only possible through the countless hours of planning, sharing of ideas, and calls-to-action from SOGI School and District Leads, Provincial Education Leadership, and community members.
