T.E.A.C.H. is a peer-based youth anti-homophobia/biphobia/transphobia education program. The program trains youth volunteers aged 16 to 25 to facilitate anti-homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, and hetero-cissexism workshops in school and community settings. These workshops encourage youth to engage in conversations about 2SLGBTQIA+ identities and to think critically about issues faced by two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and queer members of their communities. Volunteers for the T.E.A.C.H. program are asked to co-facilitate these interactive workshops that prepare youth to have conversations that challenge assumptions and stereotypes and empower advocacy to make communities safer and more accepting for everyone.
