PATH

PATH -- Penn's Athletes & Allies Tackling Homophobia -- is a task force that was started to address the mutual concerns of Penn's LGBT and Athletic communities. By encouraging a dialogue between the groups, we hope to create a safe environment for athletes, coaches, administrators, and fans of all sexual orientations and gender identities.  As a group, we also hope to provide resources for those in the athletic community who wish to come out, and for heterosexual athletes and coaches to receive accurate information about LGBT issues.

Undergraduates, graduates, and students of any university are welcome to attend QCF's events.
