Welcome to the Wake Forest University LGBTQ+ Center! A part of the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, the LGBTQ+ Center strives to decrease inequity and increase sense of belonging for people of all genders and sexualities at Wake Forest. We serve our entire campus community of undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, staff, and alumni through our five focus areas: education, advocacy, support, community building, and personal and professional development. The LGBTQ+ Center offers a number of ongoing programs and educational opportunities, as well as special events, throughout the year, and we maintain a lounge space in the Benson Student Union. All are welcome at the LGBTQ+ Center!
