Imagine you are an educator or work in a professional setting with children. After reviewing the Learning
Policy Institute’s report on Creating Identity-Safe Schools and Classrooms, assess your practices and the
environment in which you work. How do you currently contribute to creating an identity-safe space, and
what strategies could you implement to further enhance inclusivity and diversity in your professional
setting?
Scenario 2:
Personal
Reflection
Consider your personal life and the communities you engage with outside of your professional role. How do
you navigate conversations and interactions related to identity, both within your close circles and in broader
social settings? After reviewing the characteristics of an identity-safe person, assess your behavior and
communication style in personal spaces. Are there areas for growth or improvement in fostering identity
safety?
