Welcome to the NGLTF Campus

Organizing Manual!

Dear Campus Organizers:

We write to you in our capacity as members of the NGLTF Board of

Directors to present this impressively thick book   LGBT Campus

Organizing:  A Comprehensive Manual.  

Based on extensive research conducted by NGLTF about the kinds of

information and support campus organizers need and want, the man 

ual contains contributions by students, faculty, staff and alumni/ae

from campuses and organizations all over the country.  As you flip

through the pages for the first time, you'll notice that it's full of lists,

sample documents and referral phone numbers   all designed to

help you build healthy, effective, and long lasting organizations that

have the ability to transform colleges and universities into safe and

welcoming places for lgbt people. 

We hope you'll think of this manual as a work in progress:  If you see

gaps in the information included here, if you know about allied orga 

nizations that aren't represented in these pages, or if there's any oth 

er feedback you'd like to share, let the NGLTF Campus Project know.

In the meantime, just use it!  Mark it up as you would a workbook,

copy pages relevant to your events/campaigns, share it with others,

but remember to leave it behind for use by the people who follow

you.

With Pride!
