Hello!  My name is Vern Reinhart (pronouns she/her), and I am the LGBTQ+ Liaison for the Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD).  My job is to support our LGBTQ+ students and families.  Please reach out to me if you need anything.  You can also find several resources below.  I train staff on Identity Support Plans (IDSPs), LGBTQ+ laws and policies, and to support curriculum integration.  I also help coordinate the gender-sexuality alliances (GSAs) at our SAUSD schools and provide support to teachers, administrators and counselors.  I have been a part of SAUSD since the 2006-2007 school year.  I have previously taught at Spurgeon Intermediate, Lydia Romero-Cruz Academy, and Sierra Preparatory Academy.
