COVID-19 Updates from the LGBTQ+ Center

We know that these are scary and uncertain times. Many of us are feeling anxiety about the health and wellbeing of our loved ones and ourselves. Some of you may be missing campus, and the community that you have built there. Some of you may be in situations where various parts of your identity aren’t being affirmed. Some of you may be struggling to piece together basic needs.

Please know that even if we are not together on campus, the LGBTQ+ Center and our staff are still here for you. During our period of online learning, the LGBTQ+ Center is available to you in the following ways:

• Online programming like QTPOC Connections, T Time, C3: Building Community over Coffee and Conversation, and more
• Virtual community building through our GroupMe and daily drop-in hours from 1:00 – 2:00 pm
• 1:1 support on your time and through your preferred method – Zoom digital meeting, phone consultation, e-mail or text correspondence
• Remote opportunities to learn and develop your skills

You matter to us. Stay connected to us, and to each other.

Sincerely,

Angela Mazaris (they, them, theirs)
