S.A.F.E. Zone Nurturing Spaces of Belonging for All.
S.A.F.E. Zone acknowledges the intersectionality across the human difference continuum by educating and fostering respect for multifaceted personal identities (e.g., sexuality, gender identity, class, religion, ability status, national origin, cultures, creed, and other preferences). S.A.F.E. Zone Allies utilize campus-wide and community resources to assure physical, emotional, and mental health safety measures and practices.
At Kansas State University we deeply value our Principles of Community. As such, S.A.F.E. Zone workshops help to provide information and help hold the K-State Family accountable to those standards.
