Jefferson Lab is committed to promoting a diverse, equitable, inclusive and accessible workplace for all employees and scientific users. We believe in fostering a psychologically safe culture in which everyone is respected and empowered to be their authentic self. We aim to build a sustainable workforce to promote innovation by attracting and retaining a diverse group of people to the lab and supporting their ongoing development.
Celebrating and recognizing Pride Month helps raise awareness and provides the lab with the opportunity to learn and understand the challenges members of the LGBTQ+ community may face, including discrimination and microaggressions. Throughout June, Pride Month spotlights and celebrates LGBTQ+ voices, culture, achievements and activism through a series of organized activities, including festivals, art exhibits, marches, concerts and other programs throughout the month.
