ERG & MISSION

HOW THEY'RE MAKING AN IMPACT

PACT (Parent & Caregivers Together) PACT is designed as a network to support working parents and caregivers, partnering people with a unique bond and fostering the exchange of ideas and strategies to achieve work-life harmony. UNITY UNITY’s mission is to increase visibility and provide an open-minded support system for conducting business and addressing the personal requirements of our lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning and others (LGBTQ+) and allies community.

PACT celebrated National Family Caregivers Month in November.

Additionally, one of the signature events PACT organized in 2021 was “Night Without a Bed”—a challenge and fundraiser to raise awareness about family homelessness, which was supported across the ERGs. UNITY raised thousands of dollars for nonprofit organizations in support of LGBTQ+ youth and held important dialogues with members and allies to promote inclusivity in the workplace and our communities. The group also hosted events throughout the year and during Pride Month. Our Veterans program held its first heritage month in November with a month full of programming. Of special note was a joint event with LEAD welcoming an external keynote speaker to explore the topic of “Overcoming Adversity—Military and Disability.” The program held events focusing on a variety of other topics, including having servicepeople across all ERGs share experiences about how their time in the military benefits their work; how to deal with stress and build resilience; and career development and success. WIN continued key programming including a professional development fund to support education courses and professional certifications for its members, as well as a robust mentorship program and curated career development curriculum. On an annual basis, WIN awards scholarships for employees to participate in the CREW Network Leadership Certificate Program.
