Master Sgt. Desmond Hunter-East, coordinator for the lunch and learn, explained that the goal of this year’s Pride Month Observance event is twofold.
“It’s a combination of education and networking because many people might not know that there are others out there that are going through the same thing that they are,” Hunter-East said.
Following the speakers, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and network with one another.
Hunter-East explained that education is the key to achieving an inclusive environment for all service members.
“With the environment changing, we should be the ones at the forefront of educating people,” he said.
By observing Pride Month, Wright-Patterson continues to promote an inclusive workforce that values diversity. The event is open to anyone on base, and supervisors are especially encouraged to attend.
