Title: Evaluation of the Anytown Leadership Institute Programming on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues
Abstract: Abstract Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth in the United States grow up in a social environment that often renders them invisible and targets them for violence and abuse. In addition, both LGBT and heterosexual youth have minimal access to accurate facts and information about sexual orientation and gender identity. In 2002, the National Conference for Community and Justice (NCCJ), Greater Kansas City Region integrated LGBT education into their 7-day residential Anytown Leadership Institute. An evaluation conducted over a three-year period found that there was statistically significant positive change in respondents' self-ratings of knowledge and attitudes before and after the Institute experience.
