Safe Zone

Bristol’s Safe Zone is a network of faculty and staff who have participated in training to foster a supportive environment for LGBTQIA (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning, intersexed, asexual) individuals. Safe Zone is also dedicated to assisting heterosexual, cisgender and other people who care about diversity, equality and inclusion.
Those who have committed to being Safe Zone allies indicate that bigotry and discrimination, specifically pertaining to members of the LGBTQIA community, are not tolerated.
The Rainbow Connection LGBTQIA+
The Rainbow Connection is the LGBTQIA+ club located on the Fall River Bristol Community College Campus. We provide not only a safe and judgment-free zone on campus for allies and members of the community, but also in the spreading of awareness of LGBTQIA+ rights and education in the forms of discussion, campus events, fundraising, and much more.
Please email Laine.Clements@BristolCC.edu for more information.
Gender Inclusive Restrooms
Gender inclusive restrooms can benefit many different people, including parents with differently gendered children, people with disabilities who may require the accompaniment of an attendant of a different gender and trans and gender non-conforming people.
Facilities with the gender inclusive designation should be treated as single-occupant restrooms, regardless of the number of stalls or fixtures inside, and individuals should lock the exterior restroom door when in use.
