Vision, Mission, Goals

Public Education 

The goal of the Public Education Program is to organize a series of training and public education programs that help promote better utilization of government resources and foster exchange of ideas to improve the lives of District GLBT residents. 

Previous training programs include:

  • Transgender Career Day and Job Fair
  • GLBT Fundraising Training 
  • 2007 GLBT Economic Development Conference.  (Click here for handouts and the agenda from this conference).
The Public Education program also works to facilitate access for DC government agencies and related service providers to model sensitivity training institutes on GLBT issues and ensure that the training provided by these agencies is culturally competent and appropriately addresses issues facing the GLBT community. 
 
For information on how to conduct GLBT sensitivity training, please contact the office at (202) 727-9493 or e-mail lgbt@dc.gov.
