SAN DIEGO -- The third annual national educator conference, "Supporting Students ~ Saving Lives," held this last weekend has now come and gone, but the seeds that were planted are already beginning to sprout and take shape back at the school districts and individual campuses around the country.

Aimed at empowering K-12 school counselors and educators of LGBTQIA students to make school campuses a safer, more welcoming environment, the sold out conference did just that.
