Abstract

School settings are often fraught with risks for sexual minority youth, yet the presence of targeted and supportive services within educational contexts is surprisingly rare. This article (a) describes the development of Affirmative Supportive Safe and Empowering Talk (ASSET), a gay-affirmative, school-based group counseling intervention created specifically to promote the resiliency of multiethnic sexual minority youth; (b) suggests group themes and approaches; and (c) discusses critical considerations for implementation. ASSET may be considered a promising intervention that provides opportunities to bridge the unique gaps in service for this vulnerable population.
