6) LGBT Safe Space Program & Training

LGBT Safe Space Program & Training
Next Training: January 17, 2:00-5:00pm @ Deering Library, Room 2699A

The Safe Space Program is the LGBT Support Network's initiative to visually show the support that is out there in our campus community, as well as to increase that support. Unlike more visible under-represented groups, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) persons cannot be readily identified. Likewise, there is no easy method of identifying persons supportive of LGBT issues.

As one component of the LGBT Support Network, the Safe Space Program strives to provide a way for supportive persons within the University community to prominently identify themselves. The program advances Northwestern's goal of creating a campus community in which everyone is treated with respect and dignity.

The goal of this program is to provide a more hospitable environment for LGBT persons at Northwestern by establishing an identifiable network of persons who can provide support, invormation, and a safe haven to LGBT persons within the University community.

To learn more about the Safe Space Program, program objectives, member responsibilities, training process, and training application, go to:
