Become a Voice for Change!

SpeakOUT continues our 50+ year tradition of sharing our life experiences with a range of audiences to shatter harmful stereotypes and build stronger allies for the LGBTQ+ community. The one-day intensive training will prepare volunteer speakers to conduct interactive speaking engagements in schools, colleges, workplaces, faith communities, and more in the Greater Boston area & online. The training will focus on valuable skills such as setting the right tone, shaping and telling a story, overcoming fear, working with a co-speaker, and answering difficult questions. Participants will work in large groups as well as small breakout sessions with experienced speakers to hone their story.

Registration: $75 standard, $35 seniors/students. Pre-registration is required. Breakfast, lunch, snacks, and training manual are included. Ask about scholarships & group rates. Don’t let cost keep you from participating! For more info and to register visit bit.ly/Spring2025Training or email info@speakoutboston.org.
