The PRIDE Center is Sacramento State’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, and Ally (LGBTQQIAA) Resource Center. It is located on the first floor of the University Union, next to Round Table Pizza.

The PRIDE Center provides a Safe Zone where LGBTQQIAA students can spend their in-between-class time, get resources, find community, volunteer their time working on projects, and help others. All of these things help students who may otherwise feel isolated and marginalized get the community engagement and connections to campus that they need in order to be successful students.

The Center also try to educate students, staff, and faculty on campus in order to create Safe Zones outside the PRIDE Center. These are done via Classroom Panel Presentations, Safe Zone Trainings, and Events.

If you or anyone you know (someone coming out, someone struggling with their sexual orientation or gender identity, etc.) is ever interested in checking out the PRIDE Center, please drop by! You can also call us or send us an email or drop by a PRIDE Center event.

There are numerous ways to get involved with the PRIDE Center and with the LGBTQQIAA community. Step one for students, staff, and faculty is filling out the Volunteer Form, which can be found at this link: https://orgsync.com/10676/forms/15351

Our college years should be a time for educating ourselves and others, building relationships, and improving the world we live in. Come visit us and make these things happen!
