Queer Resource Center
Located at 114 Crescent St. on the Trinity College Campus, the QRC offers an affirming safe space for the LGBTQIA+ and ally community.
June is LGBTQ+ PRIDE Month – Click here to view our upcoming programs and activities.
About us:
Our Center serves as the hub for LGBTQ+ life on campus and provides social and educational programming, meeting space, and hang out place for students, faculty, and staff.
During the Academic Year the QRC generally offers ‘open center hours’ from 9:00 am – 5:00pm. These hours are subject to change due to staff availability and changes in COVID restrictions. You are welcome to make an appointment or drop in anytime you see our rainbow “Open” sign.
For questions regarding meeting-room reservations and capacities, individual card access, or to make an appointment with someone who can assist with issues related to LGBTQ+ life, please contact the director of LGBTQ+ life, Crystal Nieves, at [email protected].
