Diversity & Inclusion Training
About This Program
Meet Star Peterson, M.Ed.
As a non-binary, pansexual person, I bring my personal experiences to the table. In addition I hold certificates in Gender and Sexuality: Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace and in Foundational Safe Zone Training. I have a warm personality and create a safe space where people can ask questions.
