Do you have questions about pronouns and the different terms used to describe the spectrum of gender identities? It's always a good time to educate yourself, but with this being Pride Month, this new Guide to Gender Identity Terms has been put together and is worth checking out! Another great resource is Ethan Tai Bossuyt's Instagram account. He is a graphic artist and he has created some fantastic pieces about gendered language and how to navigate it. He has generously allowed us to share the above series called 'How to do better at Getting New Pronouns Right,' which we greatly appreciate!
Nova Scotians now have access to free online training to identify and respond to sexual exploitation of children and youth. This is sadly much-needed as Nova Scotia has some of the highest per capita rates of trafficking and exploitation in the country.
The course includes information on how to spot exploitation in your community and ways to offer support and is available at: https://nscs.learnridge.com/modules/understanding-the-sexual-exploitation-of-youth-an-introduction/
