Each student has an identity that is multifaceted. Students come together to form communities that celebrate their identities and garner strength and care from others who also share their experience. Students in these communities sometimes face challenges such as discrimination and harassment for simply being who they are. In these sections, we discuss these challenges and help identify the strengths of your communities to better manage any bumps in the road. Capitalizing on the collective strength and resilience of your communities may help you to build confidence and embrace being your authentic self.
