About Us
As Yale's only umbrella Queer Activist organization, the Queer Student Alliance (QSA) has been a critical vehicle for Queer student activism on campus. The Queer Student Alliance (QSA) educates, mobilizes, and unites all Yale students against critical issues facing the LGBTQ+ community through community activism. Our purpose is to not only be reactionary to problems and incidents, but also to prevent them.We achieve this through a three-pronged approach: education, events, and policy that serves all Yale LGBTQ+ students. Through discussions, social media, and other mediums, we will facilitate intercultural and queer solidarity. We can best be defined as an umbrella organization that serves and reached all cultural houses and activist groups at Yale and preaches intersectionality. We aim to collaborate with trans@yale, mental health and environmental groups, cultural houses, etc. We seek to develop solutions to LGTBQ+ issues such as anti-LGBTQ extremism, toxic masculinity, mental health, and etc. The combination of both events like vigils/protests or political teach-ins, and bringing awareness to the campus via education, we can actively advocate for change for issues that mean most to us. We hope to call for systemic change and reform throughout Yale and beyond and better the lives of LGBTQ+ people everywhere.
