Looking for Volunteers End of February!
Hello,
My name is Rebecca, I'm a graduate student in the School of Criminology at Simon Fraser University. I'm conducting a study about homophobic and transphobic bullying in high schools. I had to take a hiatus due to some health issues but am back in action and am looking to set up a small group discussion for the end of February. The research, involving group discussions with former high school students, is designed to inform practice, policy, and research and promote a safer learning environment for high school students in Canada.
Interested in being involved? Join a short (1-1.5 hour) one-time discussion group.
Are you....,
- a gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, two-spirited or queer (GLBTTQ) person who feels you were bullied in high school because of your sexual orientation of gender identity?
- 19 years of age or older?
- someone who graduated from or left a Canadian high school in the year 2002 or later? (NOTE: YOU DID NOT NEED TO BE 'OUT' IN HIGH SCHOOL)
- interested in discussing your experiences (both positive and negative) with other GLBTTQ people who have also experienced bullying?
If you answered yes to all of these questions, you're invited to participate in a one-time group discussion exploring experiences with homophobic or transphobic bullying in high school. The purpose of this confidential research is to gain a deeper understanding about these forms of harassment to promote a safe learning environment for high school students in Canada.
For more information, or to volunteer, please contact Rebecca at bullystudy@hotmail.com
