Connections & Community

A strong community is built on the foundation of our connections with others and with ourselves. Celebrate the theme of Connections & Community by connecting with knowledge and resources to care for yourself and through forming connections with others. Participate in programming to learn how to advocate for yourself and others, build new connections, and contribute to building a stronger IU community.

As I celebrate being queer, poz, Black, partially deaf, and Caribbean; the LGBTQ+ community is a myriad of gender and sexual identities. It is important to recognize, celebrate, and value our multiple dimensions of identity that make up the LGBTQ+ community at Indiana University. We welcome you and encourage you to visit the LGBTQ+ Culture Center. We are here to support students, staff, faculty, alumni, and community.
