**Diversity Peer Educators

**Safe Space Training

At the conclusion of the training, participants have the option to display a Safe Space symbol as a signal to LGBTQ individuals that they maintain a safe and affirming environment.

**Women's Center Outreach Program
—The Women’s Center offers outreach programs for residence halls, student organizations, sororities and fraternities, departments, classes and community organizations on important topics such as body image and disordered eating; personal growth and awareness; empowerment and self-esteem; gender socialization; women’s history; and feminism.
