Safe Zones

What is a Safe Zone?

Safe Zone programs are found on university and college campuses; however they are also found in high schools,  in some churches and communities.  Safe Zones provide safe spaces that are highly visible and easily identifiable to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) persons, where support and understanding is the key and where bigotry and discrimination are not tolerated. 

Safe Zones are commonly identified as "ally" programs, where members of the LGBT community recieve support from and work together with heterosexual supporters, friends and allies.  GSA's (gay-staright alliances) are another example of an ally program.
