CELEBRATE WITH PRIDE AT YOUR WORKPLACE OR BUSINESS
Whether it’s during Pride Month in June, Mardi Gras in February or during your company’s corporate social responsibility month, consider hosting an event at your workplace that not only brings your LGBTQ+ employees and allies together, but also supports LGBTQ+ mental health and wellbeing. By hosting an event at your workplace in support of ACON, or by turning your planned Pride event into an ACON fundraiser, you will be celebrating LGBTQ+ pride and inclusion and helping a great cause at the same time.
