Including LGBT Parented Families in Schools
Proposal review
Research to Inform Policy and Practice
Abstract
This book explores the experiences of LGBTQ+ parented families in school communities and provides a voice for this overlooked group who are becoming an increasingly common form of family diversity in school communities.
Approaching the topic from a strength-based psychological perspective, the book presents LGBTQ+ parents’ suggestions for school improvements and supportive structures and provides empirical evidence to inform future LGBTQ+ inclusive educational policy.
Research based yet practically focused, it will be a valuable resource for researchers, students and education professionals alike.
