As a Safe Zone Ally, we ask that you follow these guidelines:
Consult the LGBTQ Center staff whenever you have questions or would like feedback on how to support or advise a student.
Refer students for counseling when appropriate. If a student is experiencing extreme psychological distress and is having difficulty coping, suggest that counseling may be helpful to him or her.
Note: If you are feeling overwhelmed or worried about a student, referring them to the Counseling and Wellness Services (966-3658) would be appropriate. You can also refer them to Terri Phoenix or Danny DePuy at the LGBTQ Center (843-5376).
Your Safe Zone sign is considered University property. If it is defaced or torn down, report the incident to the LGBTQ Center immediately, 843-5376
If you are leaving the University, changing offices or address, or want to withdraw from the program. Please inform the program coordinators so that we can update your information.
Keep your resource manual and new materials that may be periodically sent to you in a location that is accessible and familiar to you. It is permissible to copy materials from the resource manual. If you have suggestions for material you would like to see added to the manuals that are distributed, please contact Danny DePuy or Terri Phoenix at the LGBTQ Center.
