Welcoming Schools Book Lists: Diverse Children’s Books to Create Gender Expansive Classrooms and Support Transgender and Non-Binary Students
Produced by the
HRC Foundation
Welcoming Schools book lists are designed to help educators create classrooms and schools that are free of gender stereotypes and gender norms that limit all children. A key focus of our program is to provide comprehensive resources for educators to create a welcoming school environment that fosters understanding of transgender and non-binary people and affirms all students identities across the gender spectrum.
