Regence employees to participate in 2015 Pride Parades

June marks Pride Month, an annual month-long celebration of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) history. But June isn’t the only month Regence shows its pride. All employee resource groups (ERGs) at Regence foster a welcoming, diverse and inclusive workplace for every employee.

Our ERG program supports women, African Americans, members of the military, and our LGBT workplace communities. The LGBT ERG represents five distinguishing characteristics: Professionalism, Respect, Individuality, Diversity, and Equality (PRIDE).

But what does PRIDE mean to its members?

“PRIDE provides a safe space for Regence employees to thoughtfully plan out how to promote our core values, as well as to support other ERGs and a more inclusive company culture,” said one enthusiastic PRIDE supporter. “PRIDE also shows prospective employees and customers that Regence values people from all walks of life.”

In 2015, PRIDE will march in three different Pride Month Parades across three of our markets – Oregon, Utah and Washington. Mark your calendar and come support Regence and PRIDE at the Pride Parades!
