About A Queer Endeavor

Picture
Our goal is to support intersectional effort-building in education, promote solidarity across justice-oriented movements and identities, and practice engaged scholarship in the service of social change. While grounded in anti-oppressive theories, the Institute is practice-focused and is “by educator, for educator”: presenters and facilitators will have experience working directly with youth and/or with pre- and in-service teachers.​

Our Story and Mission
AQI Icon
Housed in the CU-Boulder School of Education, A Queer Endeavor is a nationally recognized center for gender and sexual diversity in education. Our work supports teachers and school communities to organize safer, more humanizing learning environments for LGBTQ+ youth, families, and staff. Our work made possible through a partnership between the School of Education at the University of Colorado Boulder and the support of the Twisted Foundation.​
