Happy Pride!
NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / July 8, 2024 / As we approach the end of June, I am reflecting on the passion and advocacy I've seen within our organization and across our communities.
I am thankful for our five LGBTQ+ employee resource groups (ERGs) and the impact they have on our inclusive workplace.
This month and throughout the year we provide psychologically safe forums for LGBTQ+ employees and allies through internal events and external outreach.
To our ERG sponsors, officers and members, thank you. Your support helps to make a difference every month of the year!
