Some thoughts I have about #PrideMonth this year and how organizations can support the LGBTQ+ members of key audiences.

Happy Pride Month! We are allies. 🌈 Here are 5 ways to celebrate Pride Month: 1. Educate yourself Learn all about the history of the LGBTQIA+ community, its history, and its challenges.    2. Donate Give back to the LGBTQIA+ community by donating to an affiliated nonprofit in your area.   3. Increase LGBTQ+ inclusivity in the workplace If your workplace does not have a culture that promotes LGBTQIA+ inclusivity, speak to your manager about ways the company can be more inclusive to this community.    4. Watch a documentary on the Stonewall Riots Learn how it all began by watching an informative documentary on the Stonewall Riots and the events that preceded and followed them, like “Stonewall Forever” or “Stonewall Uprising”.   5. Be supportive If someone you know is LGBTQIA+, be supportive as they pursue their journey. #pridemonth #LGBTQIA+ #loveislove #metabolichealth #obesitymedicine #obesity #ally Courtney Younglove, M.D., FOMA, FACOG, DABOM Maribeth Orr, D.O., DABFM, DABOM Maren Ozier Here is more about Pride Month from The National Council for Mental Well Being 👇 https://lnkd.in/eNmtJ-4M
