A new report entitled 2010: The State of Higher Education for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender People sheds light on the safety situation on campus for LGBTQ students. Dr. Sue Rankin of Penn State completed a 30-year study. She found that college campuses are not any safer today than 30 years ago for LGBTQ students. This webinar will look at Dr. Rankin’s research along with 10 strategies for reducing targeted violence on campus.

Participants will:

• Learn how to challenge LGBTQ focused violence
• Discuss ways to improve the campus climate for LGBTQ students
• Explore ally programs and the creation of safe space training
• Discover programming efforts that will support creating a safer LGBTQ campus
• Learn practical strategies that can be used in day-to-day practice to support the LGBTQ community on campus
• Explore the psychological damage for the students individually and collectively

Facilitator:
Dr. MJ Raleigh
Chair of the LGBTQ workgroup for the American College Counseling Association (ACCA) and incoming president for ACCA
