Since 1972, SpeakOUT has brought committed and enthusiastic LGBTQ+ folks together in empowering trainings to share their personal stories and to learn how to engage with a variety of audiences. SpeakOUT is a community of speakers working to create a world free of homo-bi-transphobia and other forms of prejudice by telling the truths of our lives and raising awareness about our community to create safe and more inclusive spaces. The one-day speaker training prepares volunteer speakers to conduct interactive speaking engagements in schools, colleges, workplaces, faith communities, and more in the Greater Boston area & beyond.
Especially looking for interested people of color, transgender/nonbinary and younger speakers. The training will focus on valuable skills such as setting the right tone, shaping and telling a story, overcoming fear, working with your co-speaker, and answering difficult questions. Participants will work in large groups as well as small breakout sessions with experienced speakers to hone their story.
Breakfast, lunch and snacks are provided. Cost: $75 standard; $35 for seniors/students. Inquire about sliding scale, group rates, and scholarships. Don’t let the cost keep you from participating.
