🏳️🌈 California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) has approved a groundbreaking law that prohibits coerced outings of queer students in public schools across the state. 📚 The SAFETY Act prevents school districts from enforcing “parental notification” policies, which require educators to inform parents if their child asks to use pronouns and facilities that align with a gender different from their birth-assigned one. ⛔ Effective immediately, this law also protects teachers and administrators from reprisal if they decide not to adhere to district mandates to disclose students’ queer identities to their parents. ⤵Read the complete story about California banning the outing of LGBTQ+ students in public schools below: #Equality #LGBTQRights #SafeSchools #LGBTQ #News #USA

This week we launched four more short-term volunteer projects for Blossom LGBT CIC. Here's the two I'm most excited about! 🌸 VIA Matchable Volunteering: Help us design a corporate partnership strategy! We need your support to help Blossom LGBT create systemic change for businesses who want to attract and retain diverse gen-z talent. How can we do more to reach and engage brand new partners? 💮 VIA Media Trust: Help Us Build Interview Series To Inspire Queer Gen-Z At Work. We're looking for support to record, edit, and publish a social media video campaign that spotlights the amazing things that LGBTQIA+ people HAVE achieved, utilising shortform edits for tiktok and reels plus longer form content on our website and youtube. Can you support? Let's chat! https://lnkd.in/e-_NTEkC With special thanks to our friends at Matchable & Media Trust for helping us to advertise these.
