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.

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.
