Who We Are

Tufts PRIDE is an affinity group open to all members of the Tufts faculty and staff community, with emphasis on uplifting the LGBTQIA+* community at Tufts University. To learn more about other employee affinity groups at Tufts, please contact diversity@tufts.edu.

Tufts PRIDE Caucus is a voluntary, employee-led group focused on building perspective, creating professional networks, engaging learning and development opportunities, and coming together around shared interests and common goals. Affinity group membership and programs are open to all employees of Tufts University. Employee affinity groups are supported by the Office of the Vice Provost for Institutional Inclusive Excellence.
