The Concept: Project Ally is a program based closely on Project Safe Zone, which is a project used by many schools, organizations, and communities. The program promotes awareness and non-judgmental treatment of gay, lesbian, bisexual, intersexual, transgendered, transsexual, and questioning people by providing education and training. After training, participants are given a sticker, presumably for their office or room door, and a button with which they may show their support. Objectives: To identify and mobilize a network of faculty, staff, administrators, and students who are empathetic to and informed about GLBITTQ issues. To produce evidence of support of GLBITTQ persons within the college community by providing a tangible sign of support. Workshops: To receive an Ally emblem, participants must attend a training workshop. We are considering a separate emblem for people who do not wish to take part in the workshops, but we strongly believe that training is a vital part of this program. The training workshops might include questions such as: What are homophobia and heterosexism and what do they have to do with us? What does the law say about all this? How are gay people discriminated against? What does "coming out" mean and why do homosexuals come out? What is the difference between transgendered and transsexual persons? What can I do as an Ally?
