UCS works to provide an affirmative space for students to explore sexual and gender identities and expressions. 

  • Clinicians who specialize in the needs of LGBTQIA+ students are available. 
  • Rainbow Group is a weekly LGBTQIA+ support group that offers a safe space for students to get information, share experiences, and connect with others.
