The Course changed my life…
I was wrong. It actually worked against me because I didn’t realize that there existed such a high degree of discrimination and ignorance in our current world.
I also didn’t realize that the complexities and intricacies experienced actually varied from person to person, and not all people in the LGBTI+ community were just like my sister and her friends . . .
The Equality Network course was an emotional personal journey which had me sitting there with a lump in my throat for most of it.
For the first time, I discovered how my sister and her friends saw the world through different filters. Even when I spoke to her about the course, her response was, “Yeah sis, that’s how it is.” I cried and felt like I owed her a lifetime of apologies . . .
The course changed my life . . . I highly recommend The Equality Network’s Inclusion Training for those who want to be genuine in their care when working with LGBTIQ+ individuals.
