Abstract
Statistics concerning the high prevalence of discrimination, suicidal ideation, and feelings of hopelessness among LGBTQIA+ youth are a major concern in schools. This chapter provides counselor educators with foundational information and recommendations for training school counseling graduate students to provide affirmative LGBTQIA+ youth services. By highlighting two main components of intentional educational processes and inclusive educational content, this chapter provides strategies and ideas for each CACREP core area in relation to the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) Ethical Standards. Recommendations are provided and are intentionally designed to be inclusive and equity-oriented to decenter heteronormative and gender-normative views in counselor training while emphasizing the primacy of social justice and advocacy.
