Pride Month is a celebration of LGBTQ2+ pride, rights, and culture, so to ignore the unique ways IPV & GBV impacts these folks would be to invalidate their unique and nuanced experiences. Like many other marginalized groups, the statistics around GBV are startling and indicate that an intersectional approach needs to be taken in the work to eradicate violence within this community - starting by an honest look at the stats. Only then can we start to address why these numbers are the way they are, and what can be done to protect LGBTQ2+ folks, support LGBTQ2+ survivors, and prevent GBV in the LGBTQ2+ community!

An interesting tweet about the gentrification of queer spaces in America. What are your thoughts on this issue? Some have argued that the goal should be to create an inclusive space, but something is lost when the LGBTQ become minorities in their own space. The LGBTQ community, particularly in science, is a very marginalized and extremely underrepresented community. If they want an inclusive space, some have argued that the cishet community should be the one to create it. What are your thoughts? Comment below 👇

In today's evolving workplace, company policies play a critical role in ensuring an inclusive and supportive environment for all employees, including those who need it the most: the LGBTQ+ community.

They also go to great lengths in making LGBTQ+ employees feel safe within the organizational climate." — Aritra Chatterjee, clinical psychologist and a member of the LGBTQIA+ community Here are some companies that have created policies that should be replicated to create a more inclusive office for LGBTQ+ individuals.
