OUR COMMUNITY: "ALLIES: An LGBT Support Model for College Campuses" Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) students face multiple challenges on college campuses. The ALLIES program of UCR and Texas A&M provides a model for reaching out to LGBT students. Allies are students, staff, and faculty of any sexual orientation who pledge to support LGBT people, educate themselves about LGBT issues and resources, and publicly declare their ally status by displaying an ally placard. This session provides tools and resources for creating an allies program on any campus. Presenters: Nancy Tubbs recently launched an Allies "safe space" program at UCR where she has served as director of the LGBT Resource Center since Jan. 2000. Dr. Brad Compliment joined the UCR Student Counseling Center three years ago as a counseling psychologist. Room: Arts Bldg. 1241 |
