Women's Leadership Conference 2021
Women's Leadership Conference will be happening on March 12 from 1 pm to 5 pm. Learn more about conference here: https://www.gcsu.edu/leadership/womens-leadership-conference
LGBTQ+ Programs has three S.T.A.R. Ally trainings for the spring semester!
Please register here: https://bit.ly/STARspring21
The S.T.A.R. Ally (Support, Teach, Affirm, Respect; previously known as Safe Space) program advances one of Georgia College's guiding principles of “instilling respect for human diversity and individuality,” by affirming people of all sexual and gender identities and lessening the prejudice that limits the university experience and well-being of LGBTQ+ identified students, faculty, staff, facility members, and administrators. The overarching goals of S.T.A.R. Ally training are to increase participants’ awareness and knowledge of LGBTQ+ people’s identities and experiences, as well as provide the skills to be an ally for the LGBTQ+ community at Georgia College and beyond.
Please note: these trainings will be held in person with social distance measures in place. Masks are required. S.T.A.R. Ally training cannot be made mandatory training for any individual or group. If you are interested in having your organization or group trained, please contact the LGBTQ+ Programs Coordinator to discuss your needs.
