Our LGBTQIA+ Inclusion Consultation Services are designed to support UCSB campus departments, student organizations, and programs in creating inclusive, affirming, and welcoming environments for all students, faculty, and staff, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender, or gender expression. 

We aim to empower the campus community to become leaders in LGBTQIA+ inclusion, fostering a diverse and equitable campus community. We strongly believe that together, we can create a campus where all LGBTQIA+ individuals can thrive and reach their full potential.
