The LGBTQ+ Advocate Power-Up Series educates members of the St. Cloud State community and builds a network of supportive advocates for the LGBTQ+ community.

Workshops helps participants to:

• Grow their knowledge of LGBTQ+ identities, issues, and experiences
• Better understand systems of power and inequity in relation to gender and sexuality
• Gain skills and strategies for building more supportive, inclusive, and socially just environments

There are two levels of workshops offered. Level 1 requires no prior knowledge of LGBTQ+ identities. Level 2 assumes familiarity with LGBTQ+ terminology and issues.

Workshop sessions are capped at 25 participants. RSVP on HuskiesConnect to register.

Staff from the LGBT Resource Center offer presentations on a variety of topics, available in person or virtually via Zoom or Microsoft Teams. Sessions can be customized in length to fit your needs. Topics include:

• LGBTQ+ terminology
• Heterosexual privilege
• LGBTQ+ history
• Gender and sexuality theory
• Intersectionality
