Expanded Resources from All Children - All Families

All Children - All Families, a project of the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, has announced new, expanded resources for child welfare agencies to improve practice with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) clients.

All Children - All Families has identified ten key benchmarks of LGBT cultural competency: proven best practices in supporting and serving LGBT youth and families. Agencies that participate in All Children - All Families work to meet each of these benchmarks using the project's innovative resources, including an online agency self-assessment tool, comprehensive staff training, free technical assistance and more.

If an agency achieves all of the benchmarks, it is recognized as a "Leader in Supporting and Serving LGBT Youth and Families" and awarded the All Children - All Families Seal of Recognition. This seal can be used to enhance your agency's outreach and recruitment efforts within the LGBT community and to reassure LGBT youth and their families of your commitment.
