Why Pride Month Matters
Pride Month is more than just parades and rainbow flags; it's a powerful testament to the resilience and courage of LGBTQ+ individuals who have fought for their rights and continue to advocate for equality. It's a time to reflect on the progress made and the work that still needs to be done to ensure that everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, can live openly and authentically without fear of discrimination.
Liberty's Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion
We believe that diversity is our strength. We are committed to creating an environment where all employees can thrive. This means actively promoting policies and practices that support LGBTQ+ employees, including:
- Inclusive Workplace Policies: We have comprehensive non-discrimination policies that protect employees from harassment and discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression.
- Employee Resource Groups: Our LGBTQ+ Employee Resource Group (ERG), Friends of Liberty, provides a supportive space for LGBTQ+ employees and allies to connect, share experiences, and advocate for positive change within the company.
- Education Information Sessions: We offer ongoing information sessions and workshops to educate all employees about LGBTQ+ issues, fostering a culture of understanding and acceptance.
Looking Ahead
While Pride Month is a special time to celebrate, our commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusion is ongoing. We strive to ensure that Liberty is a place where everyone feels welcomed and valued, not just in June, but every day of the year.
We invite you to join us in celebrating Pride Month and to continue supporting our LGBTQ+ colleagues and communities. Together, we can build a more inclusive and equitable world for everyone.
Happy Pride Month!
With LOTS of Pride,
Friends of Liberty, ERG
