Youth org. releases model policy for trans students

The Pennsylvania Youth Congress, a statewide LGBT organization, launched an online resource May 20 for school districts looking for guidance on transgender and gender expansive students.

Dignity for All is available at http://dignityforall.payouthcongress.org.

The project includes a model policy for Pennsylvania school districts to use as an outline when drafting their own policies for transgender students.

It also includes background information on gender identity and the experiences of transgender Americans, federal law and state policy on the issue and organizations from which school districts could seek trainings.
