Safe Space Training

The Safe Space program is sponsored by the Department of Counseling and Psychological Services, Gay-Straight Alliance, and Department of Campus Life and the objectives are: (1) to provide a supportive environment for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) members of the campus community, (2) increase the visible presence of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) allies and places that are “safe” for LGBT students across campus and (3) dismiss negative stereotypes and present accurate information about the LGBT population.

Safe Space Trainings are held twice per semester for students, faculty, and staff of Clayton State. Individuals who have completed the Safe Space Training may post the Safe Space symbol at their offices, backpacks, or binders as a way to designate themselves as safe allies for LGBT students, colleagues and friends.
