A free webinar discussing what makes an environment affirming and how to create those spaces

Join Mental Health America and guests for “Where I Feel Safe: What Makes an Environment Affirming” on June 27 from 12 to 1 p.m.

Feeling affirmed, supported, and safe is essential for our mental health. Affirming environments include healthcare settings but go far beyond a doctor’s office. Schools, homes, campuses, workplaces, businesses and community spaces all have the opportunity to ensure that they are affirming for LGBTQ+ folks.

This webinar with panelists Jose Caballero, Connor Dalgaard and Sophie Szew will include:

  • Hearing from individuals with lived experience about where they feel the safest and most comfortable
  • Discussing how those spaces create safety and the impact it has on mental health
  • Providing information about how to make a space more inclusive and affirming

More information about the speakers and additional resources is on the Mental Health America website.
