Lavender Connection 

Lavender Connection is a vibrant support that is open to all students, centering the experiences of LGBTQIA+ students. There are two Lavender Connection groups: one for undergraduate students, and another for graduate and professional students. If you're seeking a secure and confidential space to explore queer and trans identities, this is the place for you.

In Lavender Connection, we provide a nurturing and affirmative environment where you can share your experiences and deepen your understanding of gender and sexual identity. It's a space where your stories, challenges, and victories are heard and celebrated.
