By registering for this training you are agreeing to be present for training on Wednesday, June 8 AND Thursday June 9 from 1pm-4pm. The University of Michigan Spectrum Center is pleased to announce training dates for the LGBTQ Ally Training Program. Pre-registration is required. The LGBTQ Ally Training Program, started in 2005, seeks to empower members of the University community to be active allies to LGBTQ people. More than just a Safe Space program, the Ally Training Program uses a social justice framework to guide participants through a curriculum that bridges new knowledge of developmental theory to the lived experiences of LGBTQ and Ally-identified people. A variety of topics are covered in an array of learning modalities: LGBTQ and Ally development, definitions and terms, resources and referrals, case studies and more. The curriculum also incorporates with mixed media presentations and interactive role plays. Participants and trainers approach the sensitive topic of LGBTQ life by creating a safe space for dialogue, while challenging pre-conceived notions. The learning environment is active and the conversations are genuine. The LGBTQ Ally Training Program is open to all members of the community regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression. Participants affirm a commitment to supporting the right of LGBTQ people to fair and equal treatment; a commitment to serving as a source of support and\/or information about LGBTQ people and issues; a commitment to learning about and promoting principles of social justice; an ability to commit to training time.

The New York Times called it an \u201cartful, thoughtful and very moving story\u201d\u009d and \u201can intellectual stealth bomb.\u201d\u009d \r\n\r\nBrief description of the play:\r\n\r\nGay couple, Adam and Luke, are constantly at odds over their religious beliefs. Adam doesn't understand how Luke, a devout Christian closeted to his family, can pray to the same God that is supposed to condemn him. At the same time, Luke agonizes that his atheist partner will go to hell. When Luke lands in a coma after a life-threatening accident, everything comes to a head in the hospital waiting room when family and friends meet for the first time. Spanning five years of their relationship, Next Fall is a thoughtful moral examination, that moves deftly between serving up the laughs and exploring ideas to ponder long after the curtain comes down.\r\n\r\nThe box office is open 11am-6pm Monday-Saturday, and we gladly make ticket reservations over the phone. \r\n\r\n734.663.0681 \u2013 Box Office", "occurrence_notes":"The show runs Thursday-Saturday", "guid":"6153-1133149@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/6153", "building_id":"null", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "campus_maps_id":"1", "room":"Performance Network Theater- 120 East Huron, Ann Arbor, MI 48104", "location_name":"Off Campus Location", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["lgbt","theater"], "website":"http:\/\/www.performancenetwork.org", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Spectrum Center", "group_id":"1030", "website":"http:\/\/spectrumcenter.umich.edu" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":5, "first_occurrence":1133148 } , "5219-1131515": { "datetime_modified":"20110126T105900", "datetime_start":"20110609T200000", "datetime_end":"", "has_end_time":0, "date_start":"2011-06-09", "date_end":"", "time_start":"20:00:00", "time_end":"", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Eliza Gilkyson", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Eliza Gilkyson", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Performance", "event_type_id":"15", "description":"", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"5219-1131515@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/5219", "building_id":"null", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "campus_maps_id":"1", "room":"The Ark- 316 S.
