Allies of the LGBTQ Community

Tulane's Safe Zone program describes allies as persons who may or may not be a part of the LGBTQ community but have chosen to be identified and available to offer confidential support, respect, assistance, and accurate information related to LGBTQ issues and concerns. Allies are people who believe in the human rights of all people and demonstrate this by their presence and actions, their acceptance and celebration of diversity among all people.

The program boasts a growing population of a visible network of trained faculty, staff and students who provide confidential support, assistance and reliable information to other faculty, staff and students regarding issues related to sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression.

Allies of Tulane have completed training and have signed a pledge committing themselves to being an available resource on Tulane's campus for LGBTQ students and employees.
