About UR Pride Centre for Sexuality and Gender Diversity
Our History
In 1996, a group of students at the University of Regina saw a need to build a community of 2SLGBTQ+ people and registered a student club called Gays, Bisexuals and Lesbians of the University of Regina (GBLUR) under the University of Regina Students’ Union (URSU). As a student club, GBLUR existed as a collective of whichever students joined the club each year.
In 2002, URSU gave space to GBLUR in the Riddell Centre and GBLUR saw the beginning of a more formal collective. Three years later, GBLUR transitioned to a student centre, instead of a student club, and became GBLUR Centre for Sexuality & Gender Diversity. GBLUR was no longer an abbreviation, but was included to offer recognition to how the organization started. As a student centre, the organization became responsible not only for a small collective of engaged students, but for providing services to all students at the University of Regina.
Finally in 2010, GBLUR Centre for Sexuality & Gender Diversity became UR Pride Centre for Sexuality & Gender Diversity after expanding programs to serve the needs of both people on campus and in the community. Working out of the Riddell Centre at the University, UR Pride began offering youth groups, community gatherings, and fundraisers for 2SLGBTQ+ people at large.
In 2019, UR Pride successfully opened a downtown location in Regina that named SPACE. This community location aims to provide a much needed gathering space for 2SLGBTQ+ people of all ages to use for gatherings, community events, and projects.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Our company did the safe space training and I can't say enough good things about it and Meg the presenter. The time flew bye, it's interactive, you ask questions, answer questions and they do these cool word clouds on the screen so you know what everyone else is thinking as well. I really enjoyed how interactive it was, that helped keep the teams attention.
I'd recommend this training for anyone who works with humans! I'm not kidding. We've made it mandatory for all our staff members. Thanks for offering such an important service!!
