  • Adsb Gay Straight Alliance Guidebook
    ADSB GAY STRAIGHT ALLIANCE GUIDEBOOK Drafted: May-August, 2014 | By Cameron Aitken 2 It is my pleasure to introduce to you, the first edition of the Algoma District School Board's Gay Straight Alliance Guidebook. This manual is meant to give leaders of GSA or other similarly named clubs ideas, tools and inspiration to run sustainable student lead clubs. As one of the cofounders and past leaders of the Superior Heights Gay Straight Alliance, 2010-2012, I know how difficult yet rewarding starting and then continuing a GSA can be. Looking back, I would say that all of the time I devoted to planning meetings, tie-dying shirts, baking cupcakes and speaking with staff/students was well spent! I still look back on the events that the GSA planned and executed with pride, because they brought out the support that existed in the broader school community. I not only gained memories that will stay with me for a lifetime, but marketable skills! For the past two years I have worked at Jer's Vision as a Educational Coordinator, Summit Coordinator and Educational Manager, in charge of their educational programming. The experience I gained from this position in turn lead me to my current summer job, as the LGBTQ Advisor to the ADSB, a job I am thrilled to do. I hope that this manual will assist you all in creating and sustaining student lead clubs that work to eliminate homophobia and transphobia in the Algoma Region and remember, all GSA's are important for schools to have, regardless of the scope of their activities.

Comedienne; Tony- nominated actress; best-selling author; Emmy Award-winning television talk-show host; playwright; screenwriter; motion picture director; columnist; lecturer; syndicated radio host; jewelry designer and cosmetic company entrepreneur; red-carpet fashion laureate; businesswoman and, most importantly to her, mother and grandmother. She is exhausted! JOAN RIVERS created her own brand of irreverent, unconventional comedy to forge her remarkable rise to stardom in the entertainment world. JOAN RIVERS has used her unique gifts of humor, compassion and tenacity to triumph over personal tragedy and attain extraordinary professional success. JOAN RIVERS is one of the most naturally style-savvy women on the planet. From her signature question, “Can we talk?” (officially a Federal trademark), to her red-carpet mantra, “Who are you wearing?” the woman who asks the questions gets the answers America…and the world…wants to hear. The Lambda Foundation exists to foster for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender People - educational, social, cultural, health and artistic projects and programs in the Greater Pittsburgh area through grants and scholarships to organizations and individuals.
