On the early morning of June 28, 1969, the Stonewall Riots began in New York City. These riots sparked an equal rights movement for the LGBTQ+ community, which later marked June as Pride Month. The CU Anschutz Medical Campus is proud to continue this fight for equality and equity for the LGBTQ+ community by celebrating Pride Month with you all.
There is much to be done, and education is key! If you are not a member of the LGBTQ+ community, or do not know much about what Pride Month is about, that is ok! This website will have a list of activities and resources available to not only teach you about the community, but also teach you how to support those in it.
No matter how you choose to celebrate Pride this year, remember those who fought for equal rights, and be one of those who still does. Whether you identify as part of the community or are an ally, we hope you will consider joining us in celebrations this year! Read on to learn more and if you have any questions about these activities, email us at lgbtqhub@cuanschutz.edu.
LGBTQ+ Safe Space Certificate Program |
The CU Anschutz LGBTQ+ Hub is proud to present the Safe Space Training Certificate Program, designed to cultivate a more inclusive and supportive environment for the LGBTQ+ community on campus. The dynamic and interactive training program is tailored to empower participants with the knowledge, skills, and awareness necessary to create and maintain safe spaces for all individuals. The Safe Space Training Certificate Program spans a total of 2 hours. However, registrants will first complete a brief assessment to determine their level of prior knowledge and understanding. Based on the results of this assessment, individuals will either attend the full 2-hour training session, or join the program for the final hour of the session. This approach ensures that each participant receives the training that is most relevant to their needs. This training will be offered on the following dates:
