“You cannot get the full potential of people in your business if people have to hide who they are.”

– Allan Joyce, CEO of Qantas Airlines

The first Pride celebration in June 1970 marked the anniversary of the uprising at New York’s Stonewall Inn. Much progress has been made for LGBTQ+ rights over the past 54 years, but there are also backwards trends for the most marginalized groups in the community.

Providing mental health services to the LGBTQ+ community as well ensuring the people who work here feel safe and included is an important part of Provident’s success. We are proud to celebrate Pride!
