LGBTQA Activities and Services
LGBTQA Programs and Outreach provides a variety of services to students, faculty, and staff on campus. To educate the Lehigh community, we provide Safe Zone Ally Training about the lives, experiences, accomplishments, and needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer/questioning people. In addition, we host brown bag lunch discussions, bring guest speakers, plan film festivals, and cosponsor events with other offices throughout campus. Our students may also be available to present panel discussions in undergraduate and graduate courses to share and discuss their experiences as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or ally students.
