As an LGBTQIA+ identified person, it can be unclear who your allies are and where are safe spaces to be out as your true self. At times you may worry about whether or not you can disclose your identity at all. In order to help LGBTQIA+ identified students, faculty, and staff navigate these experiences and find support or allies, Lafayette College provides Safe Zone Trainings.
Safe Zone trainings are opportunities to learn about LGBTQIA+ identities, gender and sexuality, allyship, and examine prejudice, assumptions, and privilege.
Safe Zone Trainings are great opportunities for students to explore, learn, and build connections across communities of diverse experiences. The Office of Intercultural Development offers trainings for RAs, student organizations, Greek organizations and other student groups.
The Office of Intercultural Development is excited to host Safe Zone Trainings for Faculty & Staff. If you are interested, we encourage you to fill out our 2024 Safe Education Questionnaire.
