CTA’s Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Issues Advisory Committee (SOGIIAC) has updated its resource available to members: “Legal Rights for LGBTQ+ Employees & Students.” The pamphlet looks at California law in its protection of LGBTQ+ employees from discrimination and harassment by employers (including school districts and county offices of education) because of gender identity, gender expression or sexual orientation, or due to the employer’s assumptions about the employee’s gender identity or sexual orientation. It suggests ways employees who have been discriminated against can take action.

The pamphlet also makes clear how LGBTQ+ students are protected from discrimination and harassment by state and federal law, and offers comprehensive resources for assistance, support and more information. View it at bit.ly/42yPmVD.
