June is Pride month, and we reaffirm RWJBarnabas Health’s commitment to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for the LGBTQ+ community. It is a celebration of diversity, equality and the ongoing pursuit of justice and acceptance for all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Together this #PrideMonth, let’s Reflect, Empower and Unite. It's our collective responsibility to continue to ensure that every individual who turns to us for care is treated in unwavering accordance with our values of compassion, empathy, kindness and respect – regardless of their gender identity, gender expression or sexual orientation.
