The Safer Spaces for LGBTQIA+ Youth Quick Guide from the California School-Based Health Alliance offers strategies for creating inclusive, affirming school-based health environments. It highlights the importance of centering youth voice, addressing health inequities, and reducing barriers to care.

Key recommendations include adopting explicit non-discrimination and anti-bullying policies, providing ongoing staff training, using inclusive language and intake forms, and ensuring physical and digital spaces visibly affirm LGBTQIA+ identities so youth feel safe, respected, and supported.
