Queer and Trans Faculty and Staff Association Fund

The Queer and Trans Faculty and Staff Association (QTFSA) promotes equity and well-being by advancing inclusive policies, educational opportunities, and community-building efforts. Open to all employees, QTFSA engages the broader campus in professional development, cross-community dialogue, and collaborative advocacy for a more inclusive university. The group is open to all who wish to contribute to this mission.

Employee Resource Groups at UC Davis bring together faculty and staff who are committed to mentorship, retention, and advancing a sense of belonging for colleagues across campus. ERGs build community, advocate for needs within their interest areas, and often volunteer their time to support campus events and programs. They create welcoming spaces where colleagues can connect, learn from one another, celebrate shared experiences, and lift each other up.

Gifts to ERGs help fund community-building activities, programs that support engagement and professional growth, visibility efforts such as tabling and outreach, and initiatives that strengthen cross-departmental connection and retention. Your support directly enhances opportunities for faculty and staff to thrive and helps cultivate an inclusive, connected, and collaborative university community.
