When you hear the words ‘identity safety’, you might think about protecting your social security number or other personal information from identity theft. Identity theft also happens on an emotional level when you can't be yourself because you are being judged, marginalized, or discriminated against based on your race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, or other qualities that make you, you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51d22971e4b0414679621518/1699464044700-1TDGWSZZOHGR3ETT90HJ/image-asset.png Videos - Why is Identity Safety Important in Schools? A major identity safety research study found that when teachers treat their students’ different racial, ethnic, gender, and other social identities as assets, students enjoy school more, are more motivated, and do better academically. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51d22971e4b0414679621518/1699464418820-50G3T73WPS9E6KOR64UJ/image-asset.png Videos - How Can Identity Safe Practices Help Your Students? Many US states have recently passed bills that negatively target transgender and non-binary students. These anti-LGBTQ+ laws invalidate students’ identities, jeopardize their health, and put them in increased danger of suicide. In an identity safe school, students are accepted and valued and feel they belong. They do not feel shame or need to hide their identities. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51d22971e4b0414679621518/1445468191670-NCHUBRBL5TV9VWFJFN2Q/image-asset.jpeg Videos https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51d22971e4b0414679621518/1699464953846-ZL7SPZLFVVUJ77ZWA9ET/image-asset.png Videos - Identity Safety Interview by the Stanford Center for Opportunity Policy in Education In classrooms where students feel safe and have a sense of belonging, they develop stronger attachments to school and achieve at higher levels, even in the face of significant social and economic disparities. Teachers can use an array of strategies to create such "identity safe" classrooms — where students from diverse racial, social, economic, and linguistic groups can learn and flourish — according to Dorothy Steele and Becki Cohn-Vargas. The two are the authors of the recently published book, Identity Safe Classrooms: Places to Belong and Learn. This interview followed the SCOPE Brown Bag lecture "Identity Safe Classrooms: Places to Belong and Learn" on April 14, 2014.
