Each spring the LGBTQ Resource Center recognizes a graduating senior (May or December) who has positively affected lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning life during her/his undergraduate years at Brown.  The LGBTQ Community Leadership Award, which is presented annually, includes a prize funded by the Brown LGBTQ Alumni Group TBGALA and the Brown Alumni Association.

The LGBTQ Community Leadership Award will honor a senior who has committed significant energy toward enhancing the undergraduate experience for the LGBTQ community at Brown.  The award recipient will have accomplished one or more of the following:

1. Improved campus climate and/or the undergraduate experience for LGBTQ community members.
2. Fostered collaborations among the diverse facets of Brown’s LGBTQ communities.
3. Promoted communication and collaboration between Brown’s LGBTQ communities and other non-LGBTQ communities on campus.
4. Bridged the gap between LGBTQ communities at Brown and LGBTQ communities in the greater Providence area.

The selection committee seeks nominations for this award. To nominate a graduating senior, please send a letter to LGBTQ Resource Center, LGBTQ Community Leadership Award, Box 1915 or an email message to lgbtq@brown.edu (Please include as the subject line: LGBTQ Community Leadership Award).  Your nomination must include your name, email address, and phone number as well as a description of how your nominee has advanced LGBTQ life at Brown.  The committee will make its decisions based on the information you provide so please provide us with as much information as you can as to why your nominee is deserving of the award.
