We celebrate diversity every month, but for all of April, we would like for you to join us as we honor Diversity Month and highlight a few of those who have helped with this journey from our very own Arkansas community on our social media platforms.

“It is a time to recognize and understand our differences, be it gender, race, ethnicity, faith, sexual orientation, and other factors, while honoring the common essence of humanity. By appreciating our similarities and differences, the month aims to get people to foster a deeper understanding of others, regardless of who they are, what they are, or how they live.”

March is designated as Women's History Month, a month officially recognized to pay tribute to the invaluable contributions women have made to American history. This year's theme is 'Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion,' and we want to honor the women who made an impact in this way.

Celebrating women who advocate for equity, diversity, and inclusion is a source of inspiration for current and future generations. Women have played pivotal roles in advancing civil rights, gender equality, and diversity in various spheres of life.
