Are you looking for a way to get more engaged with the LGBTQ+ community and to help create safer, more inclusive spaces for all? A way to fight back against the current misinformation about our community?
SpeakOUT's Spring Speaker Training on Saturday, April 18, 9am-5pm offers an opportunity to enhance your public speaking skills, learn how to craft an effective story, and spend a day in queer-positive intergenerational space sharing LGBTQ+ stories.
The training will focus on valuable skills such as setting the right tone, shaping and telling a story, overcoming fear, working with a co-speaker, and answering difficult questions. Participants will work in large groups as well as small breakout sessions with experienced speakers to hone their stories. Find out how you can become an active speaker and help to amplify LGBTQ+ voices. Allies are encouraged to participate!
Registration: $75 standard, $35 seniors/students. The fee includes breakfast, lunch, snacks, and a training manual. Pre-registration is required. Ask about scholarships & group rates. Don’t let cost keep you from participating!
