Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) students experience ongoing bullying, harassment, and lack of safety in school. Specialized instructional support personnel (SISPs), such as school counselors, school social workers, and school psychologists, are in a unique position to advocate for LGB students and to implement an ally development model. The purpose of this article is to describe the current climate for LGB students, to discuss the current barriers facing SISPs in advocating for change, and to provide a model of ally development for use at each level of the K-12 system.
女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋(LGB)学生在学校中持续遭受欺凌、骚扰且缺乏安全感。专业教学支持人员(SISP),如学校辅导员、学校社会工作者和学校心理学家,在倡导支持LGB学生以及实施盟友发展模式方面具有独特的地位。本文旨在描述LGB学生目前的状况,讨论SISP在倡导变革时面临的当前障碍,并提供一个适用于K-12系统各层级的盟友发展模式。
