As #PrideMonth ends, we’d like to take a moment to reflect on the incredible ways our associates celebrated throughout the month and showed up to participate in an array of events, partnerships, initiatives, and more! From kicking off the month with our PRIDE Associate Impact Group (AIG) happy hour to attendance at a special PFLAG-hosted event, marching in the Boston Pride Parade, partnering with Point of Pride for our Month-Long Affirming Card Writing Campaign for Trans Youth + Adults, a PFLAG National “Want to be an Ally (or Help One Out?) Building the Path for Your Ally Journey webinar and more! We are lucky to be part of a community that shows up for one another and champions the idea that love is for everyone during Pride and every day of the year. Happy Pride! #Pride #LoveisLove #LGBTQCommunity #JCrew

Awareness is recognizing that some kids play differently. Acceptance is being flexible when someone doesn’t play the same way as you. INCLUSION is inviting them to play regardless. Parks are hard. Maybe more for me, but I see it in her eyes too. This month is the perfect opportunity to have an age appropriate conversation about inclusion with your kids. When kids are aware they understand how to accept and most importantly INCLUDE. #autismawareness #autismacceptance #autisminclusion

From the desk of Dr. Gerilyn Davis: Happy Thursday!! I hope your May is off to a wonderful start. I appreciate the value I receive from knowing that each new season brings new conditions. Recently, I talked to a potential client and emphasized how we were born inclusive and conditioned to be otherwise. I informed them that the best example of inclusion was a playground. Children depict inclusion in its purest form. We can recondition ourselves to remember our inclusivity. Here are some examples below. --- Recall feeling deeply connected to someone. --- Think of a time that you felt deeply connected to yourself. --- Now, think about being able to share that EXACT feeling with someone else. That is the joy of inclusion! Thus, the SWORD Inclusion System is a reclamation process. We reclaim who we are. It is the greatest gift we can give each other! Enjoy your day! #joyofinclusion #inclusionexpansion #strengthbasedinclusion #inclusionontheslopes #SWORDInclusionSystem #PhaseFourReviewWeekly

2x TEDx Speaker | Guiding Families Through the Special Education Maze, so They Can Focus Their Time and Energy on Supporting Their Child | Inclusion Champion | IEP Consulting
There's this moment in advocacy when it hits you—it's not just about pushing for a few adjustments; it's about shaping someone's 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲. It's that point where the fight evolves beyond basic accommodations, into a commitment to 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻. Inclusion, in its essence, is more than ticking boxes for physical adjustments or academic support. It's about sculpting a society where every person, irrespective of their abilities, isn't just part of the picture but is 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝗱. It's about redesigning schools, workplaces, and communities into spaces that not only tolerate but celebrate diversity and the unique strengths each individual brings. Our advocacy isn't just policy jargon; it's about building a world where empathy reigns, walls fall, and genuine connections thrive. It's about persisting, understanding that our impact reaches far beyond ourselves. It's a pledge to create environments where everyone isn't just surviving but flourishing. #specialeducation #disability #inclusion #epilepsy #theinclusivedad

R Community Episode 75 Celebration and sharing your personal experience during Pride Month Creating awareness for Pride Month and organizing a panel discussion can be a great way to educate and engage your community on LGBTQ+ issues. Creating awareness during Pride Month involves celebrating LGBTQ+ identities, promoting inclusivity, and educating others about the history and ongoing struggles of the LGBTQ+ community. Please accept this as an invitation to attend our event! Following the Cold Lake Pride Proclamation and Pride Flag raising ceremony join us for a meal catered by Gameday Grill and then participate in a panel discussion regarding issues close to those of the Queer and Transgender community. The discussion of Pride Month is important for several reasons, each contributing to the broader understanding, acceptance, and support of the LGBTQ+ community. Here are some key points: 1. Raising Awareness and Visibility Education: Discussing Pride Month educates people about the history, struggles, and achievements of the LGBTQ+ community. It highlights important historical events, such as the Stonewall Riots, which played a pivotal role in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights. Visibility: It increases the visibility of LGBTQ+ individuals and issues, helping to normalize diverse sexual orientations and gender identities in society. This visibility can reduce stigma and discrimination. 2. Promoting Equality and Acceptance Social Inclusion: Discussions foster an inclusive environment where people feel accepted regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. This can lead to greater social cohesion and understanding. Combating Discrimination: Highlighting the ongoing challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community can inspire action to combat discrimination and promote equal rights. 3. Supporting Mental Health Reducing Isolation: Many LGBTQ+ individuals face isolation and mental health challenges due to societal rejection. Open discussions can provide a sense of community and support. Mental Health Awareness: It brings attention to the mental health issues disproportionately affecting the LGBTQ+ community, such as higher rates of depression and anxiety, and emphasizes the need for inclusive mental health services. Conclusion The discussion of Pride Month is not just about celebration; it is a crucial platform for education, advocacy, and solidarity. It helps build a society where diversity is celebrated, and everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, can live with dignity and equality. By combining education, celebration, and advocacy, you can help foster a more inclusive and supportive environment for the LGBTQ+ community during Pride Month and beyond. https://lnkd.in/gv2cMN3z #diversityequityinclusionbelonging #lgtbqcommunity #pride2024 #pridemonth #equity #EquityChallenge #diversityandinclusionmatters #diversityandinclusion #inclusionmatters

Men can play a crucial role in promoting diversity and inclusion by actively engaging in conversations on allyship and breaking stereotypes. By embracing their role as allies, men can contribute to social change and foster a culture of gender equality. It's important to recognize the power of allyship in driving meaningful conversations on inclusion and ultimately be the change we want to see in the world. #diversityandinclusion #allyship #womensday #breakthestereotype #genderequality #mindsetmatters #socialchange #bethechange #letsdoit PI Coaching Systems Winning Edge
