WELCOME!
Thank you for your interest in the Stony Brook University Safe Space! This website is intended to introduce the Safe Space Program to the University community. It is here to encourage faculty, staff, and students to become active and effective allies to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) community.
Stony Brook Safe Space
Our mission is to ensure that Stony Brook University becomes a more inclusive place for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Questioning (LGBTQ) people by fostering a supportive learning and working environment.
The Goals of Safe Space are:
- To create campus spaces where LGBTQ persons feel safe, supported, and valued as members of our University or campus community.
- To provide information about resources and appropriate referrals for members of the campus community seeking additional support and information in this area.
- To expand the network of allies on campus.
- To build awareness of the issues affecting LGBTQ persons.
