The term Two Spirit does not simply mean someone who is a Native American and/or Alaska Native (AI/AN) and gay. Traditionally, AI/AN Two Spirit people were male, female, and sometimes intersexed individuals who combined activities and traits of both men and women. In early Native societies, those who identified as Two Spirit were respected as spiritual leaders and often served special roles such as storytellers, counselors, and healers. Colonization and historical trauma have threatened these traditions, however Two Spirit people throughout North America are reviving the Two Spirit role. The LGBTQ2S population has unique healthcare needs, is at greater risk for multiple health threats, and often experiences low quality care due to a variety of factors, including discrimination. i The LGBTQ2S community is at a higher risk for suicide due to a lack of peer support and harassment, as well as mental health conditions and substance misuse. For LGBTQ2S people aged 10 to 24 years, suicide is one of the leading causes of death, and those youth are three to four times more likely to attempt suicide, experience suicidal thoughts, or engage in self-harm than their non-LGBTQ2 peers. Between 38 and 65% of transgender individuals experience suicidal ideation.ii Often, culture is prevention in AI/AN communities. Some examples of the healing work being revived in the Two Spirit community include dance lessons, Two Spirit gatherings and powwows, Two Spirit drum groups, and restoring ceremonies such as the Naming Ceremony and Sun Dance.iii This document provides a list of resources for Native Connections grantees and stakeholders to reference to support Two Spirit populations in suicide prevention efforts.

  • The Complexities of Sex Education in Utah
    1 The Complexities of Sex Education in Utah Grace Sponaugle Occidental College, Urban & Environmental Policy Professor Cha, Professor Matsuoka, & Professor Shamasunder April 8, 2019 Sponaugle 2 Abstract Utah has a state-wide policy of abstinence education. Abstinence education programs have been proven to be ineffective at delaying the initiation of sex and changing sexual risk behaviors (Santelli et al., 2017), correlating with high rates of teen pregnancies and STIs ​ ​ ((Stanger-Hall & Hall, 2011)(McCammon, 2017)). Limiting the standards by which sex ​ ​ education programs are deemed “effective” to disease and pregnancy prevention, neglects the holistic view of sexual health as defined by the CDC. Therefore, in an attempt to understand the broader implications that sex education has had on youth in Utah, this study examined, through a survey and interviews, the social, cultural, and educational influences that youth in Utah attributed to their sex education. Additionally, this study analyzed how these influences have played a role in the youth’s self perception of their sexual knowledge and sexual health. This research revealed that abstinence education is inherently limited, calling for Utah to expand its sex education framework beyond abstinence education and embrace a comprehensive model for sex education. Sponaugle 3 Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank Professor Cha, Professor Matsuoka, and Professor Shamasunder for their help and guidance not only on the completion of my thesis, but also throughout my journey at Occidental College. Additionally, I would like to thank everyone that participated in the survey and interviews. None of this would have be possible without your support and interest in my project.

DRAFT: 117 COLUM. L. REV. ___ (forthcoming 2017) ANTI-GAY CURRICULUM LAWS Clifford Rosky Since the Supreme Court’s invalidation of anti-gay marriage laws, scholars and advocates have begun discussing what issues the LGBT movement should prioritize next. This article joins that dialogue by developing the framework for a national campaign to invalidate anti-gay curriculum laws—statutes that prohibit or restrict the discussion of homosexuality in public schools. These laws are artifacts of a bygone era in which official discrimination against LGBT people was both lawful and rampant. But they are far more prevalent than others have recognized. In the existing literature, scholars and advocates have referred to these provisions as “no promo homo” laws and claimed that they exist in only a handful of states.
