Departments mark Pride Month with bulletin board displays

This bulletin board was created in the Emergency Department to provide information during LGBTQ+ Pride Month 2021.

Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and Penn State College of Medicine offered several presentations as part of the campus observance of LGBTQ+ Pride Month in June 2021.

In addition, a number of departments and work areas around the institution supported Pride through efforts such as informational bulletin boards.

The Emergency Department created a bulletin board for Pride Month, “PRIDE Beyond the Rainbow,” featuring a display showcasing the meaning of and history behind a number of Pride flags.

Also, Erin McCurdy, a switchboard operator at the Medical Center, created a board for the switchboard department in June. She included information about the historical context for Pride, meanings of various Pride flags, quotes, a timeline, photos and more.
