College Resources
The Iowa Pride Network provides direct on-campus services, resources and support to Iowa’s college and university LGBT organizations and students. In addition, the Iowa Pride Network provides a variety of networking opportunities and sponsors various LGBT conferences and panels. We also invest and support the Iowa Pride Network College Coalition. This growing group of more than a dozen Iowa colleges and universities meet monthly to further develop their leadership skills, gain programming ideas and coordinate activities statewide.

1. Create Gay-Straight Alliances/LGBT Groups
College LGBT Groups are student-led organizations that educate student populations about LGBT issues and work to address anti-LGBT harassment on their campuses and promote the safety and respect for ALL students. Typically, these student groups are funded through the student government as a student organization and work with a university-funded student resource center or staff member.

2. Network with College GSA Coalitions
The Iowa Pride Network College Coalition brings Iowa's college and university LGBT groups together to strengthen LGBT Organizations, work on coordinated activities across the state in order to show community and solidarity, and provide a voice for the over 18,000 LGBT college students in the state of Iowa. If you or your college LGBT group would like to join the Coalition, register with the Iowa Pride Network and RSVP for the next College Coalition Meeting. Meetings are held throughout the year on various campuses throughout the state.
