June is Pride Month — a time to recognize the strength that comes from embracing what makes each of us unique. At NW Works, we are committed to fostering a workplace and community where every individual is treated with dignity and respect. Our mission is rooted in empowering people of all abilities and backgrounds to secure meaningful employment and maximize independence. This month, we reflect on the importance of inclusion, celebrating individuality, and taking pride in who we are. "Diversity is not about how we differ. Diversity is about embracing one another's uniqueness." – Ola Joseph (fb)
