The Safe Space Program is a training presentation designed to educate persons who serve the general student population and build a network of allies across campus who are knowledgeable and supportive of the LGBT community. The initial training is divided into three sections, understanding ourselves, understanding others and exploring what it means to be an ally.
After completing the training, participants will receive a "Safe Space" sign to display in their offices. These easily recognizable signs provide a brief explanation of their purpose.
