Beck, Matthew J.; Wikoff, Haley D.
Journal of School Counseling, v17 n5 2019
School-family-community partnerships are associated with positive educational outcomes for students and families. However, there are limited interventions available to assist school counselors in building effective school-family-community relationships with lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender parents/guardians and their children. This article outlines strategies that school counselors can implement to enhance the partnerships between school communities and LGBT-headed families across the student, school, and community levels.
