If you are new to the UB Safe Zone and you and/or a group of colleagues in your department are interested in participating in the UB Safe Zone program, please contact the UB Safe Zone Coordinator, Liz Snider, at 645-2720. We require that prospective UB Safe Zone members participate in a three-hour orientation session and agree to abide by UB Safe Zone expectations.
Mission StatementThe purpose of Safe Zone is to reduce homophobia and heterosexism on the UB campus and thereby to make our campus a safer and freer environment for all members of our community regardless of sexual orientation.
