Safe Space Training promotes cultural competency. Training occurs throughout the academic year, or you may request a session for individual organizations and departments.
Students, faculty and staff participants learn appropriate terminology, issues affecting LGBT+ communities and advocacy strategies to reduce systematic barriers to equality and inclusiveness.
