Support SafeZone Utah!
Creating create safer spaces for LGBTQ+ community members through education and advocacy.
Safe Zone Utah shares anti-bullying, domestic violence and suicide awareness resources with individuals, groups and businesses in the greater Salt Lake City valley area and throughout Utah. Some of our work includes:
- presentations to businesses on how to create safe spaces for LGBTQIA+ employees and community members;
- partnering with the Utah LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce and the business community on LGBTQ+ trainings;
- individual and group training sessions on LGBTQ+ topics; and
- opportunities for businesses to become “SafeZone Utah” certified as a safe place with available resources.
Our training curriculum is founded on three core competency units that form the base for deeper conversations and educational opportunities.
- LGBTQ+ and Gender 101
- Anti-Bullying and Allyship 101
- Suicide & Domestic Violence Awareness 101
Utilizing the framework of these core competency units, trainees learn about resources and actions they can take to be allies and advocates for LGBTQ+ and intersectional marginalized community members. While many-faceted, our training provides a basis for addressing four pillars of concern facing the LGBTQ+ community.
- Bullying
- Suicide
- Domestic Violence
Safe Zone aims to provide training and resources specifically to small businesses that may lack other educational resource opportunities. However, Safe Zone happily partners with businesses of all sizes who wish to provide safe spaces for members of the LGBTQ+ community in Utah.
