Goals and Objectives
- Educate students, staff, and faculty on the needs and concerns of the LGBTQIA+ community at University of Baltimore
- Re-establish a campus-wide network of visible allies who provide support to our LGBTQIA+ students, staff, and faculty

Take the pledge to become an ALLY today! What is an ALLY?
An ally is an individual who speaks out and stands up for a person or group that is targeted and discriminated against. An ally works to end oppression by supporting and advocating for people who are stigmatized, discriminated against or treated unfairly.
