​Join this testimony workshop to learn about the proposed State Board of Education Resolution to Support Parents, Schools, and Districts in Rejecting Harmful, Coercive, and Burdensome Gender Identity Policies and how to write and present compelling opposition testimony.

The State Board of Education will consider, and likely vote, on the resolution at the next monthly Board meeting on October 12.

We need Ohioans across the state showing up and speaking out at the meeting to protect LGBTQ+ students and condemn this harmful resolution. 

Workshop attendees will learn how to:
  • Write and submit public comment to the State Board of Education
  • Present in-person public comment at the Board meeting
  • Advocate for LGBTQ+ students in districts across Ohio

​Learn more about the resolution HERE
