LGBTQ: Reading Between the Letters
Conference Strand
Ethical Issues in Professional Counseling
Abstract
This session will shed light on what the LGBTQQIA letters really mean and how they impact our work with this community. The program emphasizes the word “Queer” and presenters will discuss intersectionality and how counseling personality can create welcoming spaces for Queer persons of color. Because Queer persons of color may not be welcomed in Queer spaces, their ethnic group, or they may be in a situations where they have to choose one intersection over another, Counseling personnel have to create a space where all intersections are validated. The presenters will integrate standards from various codes of ethics to guide participants in their ethical duty in work with members of the LGBTQQIA community.
