Be a Safe Space Facilitator!
Our Safe Space program is meant to teach the basics of LGBTQ identities and culture through definitions, terminology, and an overview of current cultural, social, and political issues, activities, and plenty of time for question and answer. Using a mixture of information and some personal stories, we hope to help support the development of LGBTQ Allies at Mizzou, making it a more inclusive space for all!
