Our Group<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

We are Youngstown State University\u2019s LGBT+ organization. But due to recent realizations that the lettering of LGBT+ can accidentally exclude orientations or identities, we have decided to move forward as a group. We did not want a long abundance of lettering; however, we still wanted to be inclusive to ALL. So we have decided to open up the new chapter of SOGIE.<\/p>\n

SOGIE stands for Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Expression.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

With this new chapter upon us, we truly feel that we stand by our original motto of, \u201cwhere everyone can be themselves.\u201d
\nWith these 5 letters, we aim to showcase that literally everyone and anyone can come to our group and be accepted.<\/p>\n

We are YSUnity: SOGIE Society.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Our Mission<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

(1) Promote awareness of issues relating to LGBTQIA (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, the Questioning, Intersex, and Asexual) students.<\/p>\n

(2) To provide a supportive & welcoming common place for all LGBTQIA students & faculty.<\/p>\n

(3) To create a more welcoming campus for the LGBTQIA community through campus activism, education, & events.<\/p>\n

(4) To network with other organizations & businesses on & off campus to create a diverse network of support for the benefit of all members of YSUnity & those people who wish to take advantage of our network of support.<\/p>\n
