LGBTQ+ Defined

The language that we use is important. By using the right terms and addressing people with their correct pronouns, we can help work toward an environment that is inclusive and that celebrates diversity by recognizing and speaking to it directly.

For those not familiar with the LGBTQ+ community (and even those that are), the amount of terms can be somewhat overwhelming. A simple understanding of this acronym can be a good place to start – and we encourage you to also check out the Diversity Resources Terms & Definitions page for additional words and acronyms that may be on your radar this month.
