Arizona State University students in Tempe are seeking to expand a program dedicated to increasing campus awareness and acceptance of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community. SafeZONE is a program that helps fight stereotyping and discrimination through education. SafeZONE provides three workshops: SafeZONE 101, Gender Identity 101, and Becoming an Ally, said David Leo, one of about 15 SafeZONE facilitators.

In addition to workshops, SafeZONE also provides a list of nearly 30 local businesses that have designated themselves as LGBTQ-friendly, meaning they try to provide a safe and comfortable environment for LGBTQ students and allies.
