This Center, located in the University Center, serves to foster a supportive environment that is open, safe, and inclusive for students of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions. The Center’s objective is to celebrate and affirm LGBTQ+ people, identities, and communities; to sup

The Resource Center has a lending resource library funded in part by the Diversity & Inclusion Staff Mini-Grant; runs support/discussion groups for bi/pan/fluid students, trans and nonbinary students, asexual and aromantic spectrum students, and QTBIPOC students; provides the Ferris community with educational and cultural events; maintains a list of information and referrals to resources; advocates for and assists students in navigating the university and achieving their goals; provides trainings and workshops to develop Ferris community members' professional and cultural competencies around working for gender and sexuality justice; maintains a donations-based closet of clothing, binders, makeup, and other gender transition resources for transgender community members; holds networking and social events; and collaborates with diversity and equity working groups and with campus and community partners to make Ferris a welcoming and affirming place for all members of the LGBTQ+ and ally community.

Today, August 24th, we celebrate the birthday of trailblazer, Marsha P. Johnson.

She was a revolutionary figure for the modern LGBTQ+ movement. She co-founded the Street Trans Action Revolutionaries (STAR) in 1970, which was one of the first organizations in the U.S. dedicated to supporting struggling q***r youth by providing them a home to stay in.

Today, she would've been 81 years old.
