Individuals who wish to participate in the Allies of Texas State program must attend a training. At teh end of the training, individuals have the option of signing a contract required to become an Ally. Those who sign the contract will recieve an Ally of Texa State placard and/or pin. These two items symbolize understanding, support, and trust. They also signify a "safe place" which is a location and environment where LGBTQ individuals can speak in confidence and recieve help, advice, and support.
Upon the completion of a training, individuals receive a Certificate of Completion. This certificate also certifies that a participant has earned four (4) hours of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) credit.
Snacks and refreshments are provided at afternoon and morning trainings. Participants are encouraged to eat prior to trainings.
