Safe Zone Allies

A Safe Zone Ally is someone with information, sensitivity, and understanding towards members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Questioning (LGBTQ) community, their issues, and concerns. Safe Zone stickers, identified by a Pink Triangle and a statement of support, are posted on office doors or cubicles of faculty and staff who are supportive and safe for LGBTQ students. When someone displays the Safe Zone sticker, this means that she/he is an Ally who has participated in Safe Zone training, signed the Safe Zone Ally’s Contract and is committed to providing a safe place in which to discuss LGBTQ concerns and issues. To find out more about how you can participate in Safe Zone training, please contact Jane Meek at 556-4329.
