Rainbow Resource Center

The Rainbow Resource Center serves as a resource for the students, faculty, and staff of the University of Wyoming, as well as for members of the Laramie, and Wyoming community. Our goal is to provide a safe and supportive place for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, questioning, intersex, ace, two-spirit and queer individuals and their families and friends. The RRC welcomes all regardless of sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, religion, age, gender or affiliation with the University. All funds raised will go towards the RRC and the students it supports.
