In 2023, hundreds of anti-LGBTQ+ bills have advanced state legislatures that seek to attack the civil rights of queer people, especially transgender youth. Within this socio-political landscape, many queer folks continue to face discrimination, particularly in healthcare & educational settings.
We must remain vigilant & take action. We stand with LGBTQ+ communities. We provide an open & inclusive environment for our UCSF community.
Take the 'Pride Pin Pledge' here to show support, take action & increase visibility.
I PLEDGE TO:
- Undertake the 'Gender Recognition' e-course
- Familiarize myself with the 'Pronouns Matter' campaign
