The Safe Zone Training Program is the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息's institutionally recognized Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender/Trans+, and Queer/Questioning (LGBTQ+) diversity training program offered through the Office of Multicultural Affairs. The Safe Zone Training Program aims to educate participants on advocacy for the LGBTQ+ community by promoting understanding, support, and inclusivity through interactive conversations and activities.

The Safe Zone Training Program is a four-part training program that educates the USF community on LGBTQ+ identities, policies, and ways to be supportive allies and advocates across campus. Students, staff, and faculty are encouraged to complete all four parts of the Safe Zone Training Program to create more inclusive environments across the University for the LGBTQ+ community. Trainings should be taken in order, starting with Education Part One and ending with Advocacy. Each section is 2 hours/120 minutes long.

If you have taken the original Safe Zone Training in its 3-hour form in the last 3 years, please register for Safe Zone: Education Part Two.
