Be Yourself Here.
The mission of the LGBTQ Resource Center is to cultivate safe spaces on campus and within our Center’s programs, empowering LGBTQ students to develop their authentic identity, and become proud, successful, engaged members of the UH community.
To mitigate the risks from COVID-19, all LGBTQ Resource Center staff will be working remotely. We are available to assist you Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM through email: lgbtq@uh.edu and phone: 832-842-6191.
As we are all practicing social distancing, the LGBTQ Resource Center would like to provide you with ways to remotely connect/stay involved, and access available support services.

We especially want you to be aware of our discussion groups and online social activities which can be found on our calendar.
