Canvas
Visit the LGBTQIA2S+ Canvas shell – it has a collection of resources for the LGBTQIA2S+ community but is mostly used as a listserv for students to send out events and information. We also have an LGBTQIA2S+ Advocates Staff and Faculty List.
LGBTQIA2S+ Advocates Listserv
Our LGBTQIA2S+ listserv features 70+ North Orange County Community College District employees who stay in contact for the purposes of sharing events, resources and information to support the LGBTQIA2S+ community on our campuses. You can join the listserv by contacting Fullerton College’s LGBTQIA2S+ Special Projects Manager Ariel Gentalen at agentalen@fullcoll.edu.
Pronouns 101
Our LGBTQIA2S+ Resource Program provides a Pronouns 101 training that covers why pronouns matter, a variety of pronoun choices and their meanings, as well as best practices and advice to limit pronoun mistakes. This presentation can benefit students, faculty and staff in creating inclusive spaces for everyone.
To request a Pronouns 101 training at your next division/department meeting or during class time, reach out to LGBTQIA2S+ Special Projects Manager Ariel Gentalen at agentalen@fullcoll.edu.
