GLSEN Educator Spaces - Request to Join

GLSEN Educator Spaces - Request to Join
GLSEN Educator Spaces are virtual forums for LGBTQ+ supportive educators to build community, share resources, and ask questions.

To ensure GLSEN Educator Spaces are secure, we require each prospective member to verify their school / district / institutional email address to join. The verification email will come from Jotform: it will not come from GLSEN or mention GLSEN. Once your school / district / institutional email address is verified, you may choose to use a different email address (such as a personal email address) to receive communications from GLSEN.

After you submit this form, expect roughly 14 days before receiving an update from us. If you are approved to join GLSEN Educator Spaces, the email address you selected for GLSEN communications (either your school OR personal email) will receive an e-invitation to create a profile in the GLSEN Portal and start getting to know other educators!

Are you a staff member at a K-12 school or school district in the United States? Note: public librarians, Changing the Game Summit attendees, and those currently enrolled in teacher/librarian preparatory programs should answer "yes."*
