For this reason, I’ve made updates to some of the suggestions shared below which take into account the remote-first approach to work adopted by many companies. Update: This post was originally published before the COVID-19 pandemic changed how we live, work, and interact with one another. So, if you’re looking for meaningful ways to help your company celebrate this month, here is a handful of ideas you can definitely pull together in the next couple of weeks. There’s more than one way to celebrate any occasion, and Pride is certainly no exception. What we cared about most was celebrating Pride, however we could, and we wanted to celebrate alongside the people with whom we spent almost every day - our coworkers.
My colleague didn’t come to me with a plan, and neither of us had any idea of what we’d be able to pull off given the short window of time we had.
A coworker I regularly grabbed a coffee with had approached me asking me to help him plan something to help our company celebrate Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) Pride. You can find us on Twitter at few years ago now, I was at a different startup, one quite a bit larger than Range is now. We’d love to hear your ideas and thoughts. Last week we wrote about building an inclusive work environment by holding space. In honor of Pride Month, Range is sharing a few posts on building inclusion at work. This webinar is designed to build the knowledge, attitudes and skills needed to enable non-physician health and human services providers to deliver culturally competent services to the diverse range of lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender queer and questioning (LGBTQ+) clients they serve.Don't miss our 2020 Pride stories about empathy and inclusion from the Range team. To celebrate Pride Month, on Jat 2:00-3:30 PM, our Center for Public Health Education will be offering "LGBTQ+ 101: Cultural Competency Webinar." Our School is a family, and we wish to foster an environment of unity among our faculty, staff, and students, built upon collaboration, compassion, and empathy – principles not only important within our School, but principles that will help our students become leaders in healthcare among their communities. We celebrate our uniqueness and offer safe spaces in our classroom, laboratories and across our curricula where everyone has the opportunity to express themselves and be heard. In SHTM, we embrace diversity, equity and inclusion, and these tenets are carried forward in our daily interactions with fellow faculty, staff and students. The purpose of the commemorative month is to recognize the impact that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals have had on history locally, nationally, and internationally. Memorials are held during this month for those members of the community who have been lost to hate crimes or HIV/AIDS. Today, celebrations include pride parades, picnics, parties, workshops, symposia and concerts, and LGBTQ Pride Month events attract millions of participants around the world.

In major cities across the nation the "day" soon grew to encompass a month-long series of events. In the United States the last Sunday in June was initially celebrated as "Gay Pride Day," but the actual day was flexible.
The Stonewall Uprising was a tipping point for the Gay Liberation Movement in the United States. Pride Month honors the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan. During the month of June, the School of Health Technology and Management celebrates and honors LGBTQ+ Pride Month.
