The main goal for these changes over the last decade is to attract and retain bright employees and recognize the value that the LGBTQA community contributes to society. Therefore, as leaders at Start Proud, it is our task to promote awareness of the role that the LGBTQA community plays in organizations, to provide a space for students to interact with professionals and share ideas and experiences, and to foster mentorship by exposing students to strong leaders and role models that have paved the way for the LGBTQA community.
