Columbia College Pride provides campus and community LGBTQ+ resources for students and staff.
California Education Code Section 66271.2 requires each California Community College district to designate an employee as a point of contact to address the needs of LGBTQ+ faculty, staff, and students.
If you are a member of the LGBTQ+ community or an ally who would like to know more about how Columbia College supports LGBTQ+ students and staff, or if you have a concern or challenge and don't know where to go, please contact our Campus LGBTQ+ Advocate and Liaison for assistance. This is a confidential resource to get answers and help.
