and youth workers. The
poster highlights the invisibility of
young same sex attracted
students and the risks associated
with ignoring homophobic
bullying in school and youth
centre settings. Sometimes
homophobia happens in schools
and remains invisible; it has
serious consequences if not
addressed. Let’s work together to outsmart homophobia, to
ensure all students are safe and supported. Staff areas are a
great place to display this poster.” -- Publisher website.

Summary: People are identifying as gay at younger ages than
ever before. How is it playing out in the school yard and
classroom? And what does it mean for the kids themselves?
Some teens say they feel pressure to declare their sexuality
one way or the other. And researchers say same-sex attracted
young people are far more likely than other teenagers to selfharm, become depressed, attempt suicide or abuse
substances. Meanwhile, schools are grappling with everything
from complaints of bullying to requests to bring a same-sex
partner to the school formal.” -- SBSTV website. Features the
participation of secondary school students. Program transcript
