Ally Development training acts a comprehensive advocacy toolkit, to better prepare faculty, staff, students, and community members to address the needs of individuals who identify as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, and Asexual (LGBTQIA). The training addresses a wide range of terms that LGBTQIA individuals use to define themselves, unpacks the complicated notions of identity in relation to sex, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression, and examines concerns that LGBTQIA students face both in and out of the classroom. Ally Development training also explores the many ways that YOU can work toward creating more safe, inclusive, and supportive spaces and environments.
