资源 for LGBTQ+ Individuals
Tacoma Community College welcomes and values all people who identify as LGBTQ+. We want to provide resources and support for you, no matter what identities you hold. We are dedicated to making TCC an inclusive space for all individuals.
What does “LGBTQ+” mean?
LGBTQ+, sometimes abbreviated LGBTQIA and LGBTQIA2S+, is shorthand for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning, intersex, asexual, and two-spirit people. The + represents the many genders and orientations not already included in the acronym, and honors the frequently changing and expanding terminology representing the queer and trans communities. We recognize that sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression are fluid concepts for any individual to self-define at any time 在他们的生活中.
