What is SafeZones?
SafeZones is a student group dedicated to promoting awareness and discussion of LGBTQIA issues. We hold workshops to educate members of the WashU community so that we can be a more accepting and knowledgeable community as a whole. Some examples of groups that SafeZones has trained include RA’s, freshman floors, and various student groups.
So how do you become SafeZones trained?
If you’re with a group and you’d like to host SafeZones to do a workshop, sign-up here to have your group trained. If you’re an individual interested in attending a workshop, each semester SafeZones plans at least one Open Ally workshop open to any WashU student. Be on the lookout for updates on when those dates will be!
What, you mean you want to get more involved?
Join SafeZones and become a SafeZones Educator! Trainings happen once a semester; all you have to do is fill out a short application and be interviewed to qualify. New Educator Training is an intensive 16hr training where you’ll learn how to lead SafeZones workshops and learn how to facilitate. Really there isn’t anything more rewarding than being a SafeZones facilitator and knowing that you are making a direct impact on changing our campus environment
