Does the institution have mentoring, counseling, peer support, affinity groups, academic support programs, or other programs in place to support underrepresented groups on campus?:
A brief description of the programs sponsored by the institution to support underrepresented groups within the student body:
Humber's Centre for Human Rights, Equity and Diversity supports the Humber's Student Federation with training that provides the skills necessary to meet the needs of the LGTBQ community within the student body.
Humber also has a student club LGBTQ support group, SpeQtrum, that provides a safe space where members of the LGTB/Q community can connect, talk about issues, be heard and have fun. This club only exists when students are interested to create and manage it (varies by year).
Humber’s Counselling Services offers a weekly, free support group for LGBTTIQQ2S students that is facilitated by queer counsellors (this depends on having counsellors and students available and interested, at individual campuses).
A brief description of the programs sponsored by the institution to support underrepresented groups within the faculty:
The Humber Gender and Sexual Diversity Committee meets monthly to organize efforts toward their mission to foster and advance an inclusive campus community for LGBTTIQQ2S and allied employees and students by working toward the elimination of heterosexism, transphobia, homophobia, and gender identity oppression.
