Welcome to Safe Zone

Safe Zones at CSULB are individual allies, their work space, and/or personal space and are indicated by a display of the CSULB Safe Zone Ally sticker. Faculty, staff, and students who participate in the Safe Zone ally program display a CSULB Safe Zone Ally sticker to demonstrate their support and advocacy with LGBTQ individuals.

 

Safe Zone Vision Statement

The mission of the CSULB Safe Zone Ally program is to identify, educate, and support allies. Allies are CSULB faculty, staff, administrators, and students who consider themselves to be open and knowledgeable about gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) issues and who choose to openly provide support and advocate for LGBTQ individuals.

 

Safe Zone Training Objectives

• The Safe Zone program’s overall objective is for Safe Zone allies to utilize their gained knowledge and skills to foster a supportive and safe atmosphere for LGBTQI students, faculty, and staff.

• As a result of the Safe Zone Program, Safe Zone training participants will become part of an identifiable University-wide network of Safe Zone Allies.
