Safe Space 101: LGBTQ+ Cultural Competence Training for Community Members

Safe Space 101: LGBTQ+ Cultural Competence Training is an on-going training effort to make our communities safer places for all people regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. Training participants will learn about bias, stereotypes, current vocabulary, and best practices for handling gender and sexuality topics with sensitivity. After the training, individuals are offered a Safe Space Ally sign for their home or office, indicating their support of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer plus (LGBTQ+) community.

Regardless of where you work or live, if you interact with people and the public, you will meet people who identify in the LGBTQ+ community. Having a basic understanding of correct terminology and an understanding of what it means to be an ally to the LGBTQ+ community are essential in supporting all people.
