Varsity Blues Athlete Ally Initiative


Athlete Ally is:                                
a student-driven equity initiative, supported and promoted by the Varsity Board. It is dedicated to raising awareness and advancing the culture of sport that fosters inclusion on our fields, courts, ice and pool; in our locker rooms; and in our stands.  
 
The goal of Athlete Ally is:    
to provide an environment free of exclusion for all student-
athletes, and where they have the ability to succeed athletically.
 
Athlete Ally affirms:                      
the inherent presence of inclusivity within the University ofToronto athlete community.We invite everyone to become an ally, and commit to supporting, affirming and taking pride in all members of the LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer) community.
