Become Part of the Campaign
Interested in participating? We’re looking for more stories and we want to hear from you!
Your story could be a short account of how you came out, who you told, or what prompted you to do so, which can have a powerful impact. By telling our stories and sharing our journeys, we hope to inspire others to share theirs, illuminating often invisible stories for our College community.
Pride
Pride is an opportunity to celebrate Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex and asexual (2SLGBTQQIA+) communities and further our commitment to creating more inclusive spaces. Explore the great work we have done over the years here at Centennial.
