The mission of the College of San Mateo SafeZone Program is to actively advocate for the emotional, physical, and intellectual safety of all LGBTQIQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, questioning) members of the CSM Community.

CSM SafeZone promotes an inviting and inclusive campus environment and provides ongoing training for a network of allies, including students, faculty, staff, and administrators, so they may better support the LGBTQIQ community.
