Citz is often a sanctuary for people, regardless of gender, race, class, disability, or any other part of their identity. Citz should feel like a safe place to come for everyone. We do not tolerate Racism, Transphobia, Homophobia, Ableism, Misogyny or Classism or any other forms of discrimination in any form.
