??Honoring Diversity: LGBTQ-Inclusive Service Units on Remembrance Day
myGwork - LGBTQ+ Business Community
The business community for LGBTQ+ professionals, graduates, inclusive employers and advocates for workplace equality.
?? As we observe Remembrance Day, also known as Veterans Day, it's crucial to honor and recognize the sacrifices made by all who have served in the military, including LGBTQ+ veterans.
Historically, LGBTQ+ individuals in the armed forces have faced unique challenges and discrimination, yet their contributions have been invaluable in defending our freedoms.
In fact, a 2016 RAND Corporation report?found that openly serving LGBTQ+ members do not negatively affect military readiness, and units with openly LGBTQ+ members often experience stronger team dynamics and morale.?
In this edition of our newsletter, we emphasize the importance of including Remembrance Day on our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) calendar.
Highlighting this event helps ensure that the stories and sacrifices of LGBTQ+ veterans are acknowledged and celebrated alongside those of their peers.
