Safe Space (10:00 - 12:00; 1:00 - 3:00)
Presenter(s): Erin Severs, Melissa Barlett, Liz Doherty, Tamara Mariotti, and Katey
Cordery
Safe Space training is a four-hour workshop designed for individuals who wish to learn
more about the LGBTQ+ community and/or for those who wish to be identified as an ally
for the LGBTQ+ community at MVCC. This workshop is interactive and will frame the
role of LGBTQ+ allies on and beyond campus by introducing resources and providing
the tools needed to create a fully inclusive community. Upon completion of the four-hour
training, participants will receive a Safe Space sticker or window cling to display
in their workspace, communicating to MVCC students and employees that theirs is a
welcoming, judgment-free zone and one that students and staff should feel encouraged
to approach for support and guidance.
