Jon, an Army veteran and member of our McKesson Military Resource Group, normally works from our Richmond, VA office. When Virginia declared a state of emergency in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Jon and many others from the Virginia Defense Force were activated to support the governor and the public with data. Jon maintains and updates test capacity data and then reports all COVID-19 test-related activities across the state. We thank him for the contributions he brings to our company and to his community.
Allies are a critical part of Pride, and especially needed when we’re isolated. Todd, a member of our LGBTQ+ employee resource group, OPEN, says, “Allyship gives the LGBTQ+ community an additional layer of support and affirmation that we are not alone.”
Celebrations are only one aspect of Pride Month. As an ongoing commitment to the needs of our LGBTQ+ colleagues, we continue to develop an equal workplace for all. In recent years, we’ve expanded LGBTQ+ benefits like offering transgender-inclusive assistance to employees and coverage for HIV prevention medication and continue to grow and invest in our employee resource group, OPEN, pictured here at last year’s Pride parade in Dallas.
June is Pride Month, a time to remember its roots in the Stonewall Riots of 1969 and fight against discrimination for the LGBTQ+ community. Pride is a way of life. Pride means standing together, while apart, and taking action in the face of discrimination in all its forms. We’re proud to come together in celebration of LGBTQ+ advocacy, allyship and increased visibility of the LGBTQ+ community. In support, we join our LGBTQ+ employee resource group, OPEN, and others worldwide as we celebrate what makes us unique.
