Get Involved!

Are you an Ally? Have you wondered what you can do to support Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender, Queer, and Questioning (LGBTQ) students at UNH? Come to a Safe Zones workshop!
This casual activity-based program offers you an opportunity to learn about LGBTQ issues and people
and explore questions such as: What can we do to challenge homophobic comments?
How should we respond when someone comes out? What's so bad about gay jokes?
Join us for an interactive conversation, as we consider these questions and
strengthen our understanding of how to be better allies and
create a safe and inclusive climate at UNH to support LGBTQ people.
Bring your questions!
