Training Opportunities

The training is meant to raise awareness about the dynamics of gender and sexual orientation and learning ways to embody inclusive allyship for people of all orientations, genders, sexualities, identifies, and levels of being out. See the website for available trainings; the Psychology Department typically offer this in the department at least once a year through the clinic orientation for second-year students.
