Messages From LGBTQIA+ Students and Employees

Be your best self. Be brave in adversity. Find allies. If you have not come out yet and you trust a teacher or staff member, start there before talking to your parents. Dallas College has resources to help you and they are free, so use them.

Never be afraid to reveal to the world who you really are on the inside because self-acceptance is the best love.

Being fully out has given me the opportunity to be accepted and loved by everyone around me. Being able to be myself without discrimination has really helped me be more engaged with other students.

"Be comfortable where you're at. If that's exploring your sexual orientation or figuring out your gender identity, just be comfortable. Be confident. Be patient with yourself, and surround yourself with support."
