PRISM is a chapter of the global #LegrandRainbow LGBTQ+ Network and all Legrand associates—LGBTQ+ and allies—are welcome to join and support this ERG. Focusing on uniquely American and Canadian issues facing Legrand’s LGBTQIAP2+ associates, PRISM provides and promotes LGBTQ+ visibility among staff and with management about current workplace and social issues that affect the LGBTQ+ community. We encourage all to join, learn more, build your understanding, and engage with and support your LGBTQ+ coworkers!
Mission:
PRISM is dedicated to fostering an inclusive work environment for people of all genders and sexual orientations. We commit to building awareness, providing educational opportunities, and distributing impactful equality & equity tools in order to foster growth, understanding, and general positive impact for LGBTQ+ associates and allies. Through diversity we garner strength.
Vision:
Through networking, educational events, outreach, and more, PRISM strives to create a safe space for Legrand’s LGBTQ+ employees while maintaining diversity in thoughts and ideas across the organization.
This guide provides information and external references on the most asked questions and misconceptions about the LGBTQIAP2+ community. It is provided by Prism as an educational resource for Legrand employees to foster clarity, address burning questions one might be unsure how to ask and inspire associates to celebrate the diversity of this community
Mentoring
PRISM’s mentor program matches your unique skills & aspirations with a Legrand leader/employee to guide and advise you. This relationship becomes your own as it fosters and supports your career and personal development as an LGBTQ+ individual.
Community Conversations & Panel Discussions
PRISM often hosts and participates in all-ERG panel discussions with Elle, BPN, VETS, HALO, and other ERGs, to unite the company’s Diversity Equity & Inclusion (DEI) initiatives. We host frequent Community Conversations for exclusively LGBTQ+ identifying individuals as well as Community Conversations that include allies and LGBTQ+ individuals to foster positive discourse.
Committees and Member Participation
We are always accepting and encouraging member participation at any level in the process. We would be nothing without the community we are here to support! We’d love to work with and support you in whatever way you choose.
