At US² Consulting, we have always valued the authenticity of our team members and the identities of our organization. As an organization founded by a disabled woman who is a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, the work of social justice takes on an additional dimension – it is truly personal. We are proud to announce our newest certification through NGLCC (National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce).
A Brief Overview: The Mission and Vision of NGLCC
The NGLCC serves as a guardian of LGBTQIA+ businesses, nurturing and advocating for diversity and economic equality. Their mission to build a more inclusive business landscape resonates with our ethos.
Why NGLCC Certification Matters
Securing this certification is akin to holding a lantern in the dark, guiding businesses towards inclusivity and equality. It’s not merely a label; it’s a testament to our unwavering commitment to diversity and empowerment. This certification allows us to deepen our connections with the LGBTQ+ community, ensuring our voices are not just heard but amplified.
A Step Forward in Our CHANGE Values
The NGLCC certification aligns seamlessly with our CHANGE values, signifying a critical leap in our commitment to social justice and equity. It’s about embodying the values of Commitment, Heart-focused, Accountability, Networking, Genuine, and Empowerment.
US² Consulting’s Alignment with NGLCC’s Goals
US²’s mission dovetails with that of the NGLCC, creating a synergy dedicated to fostering an environment where everyone is valued and empowered. The certification echoes our core principles, especially the belief that growth occurs in discomfort and that we must intentionally include to avoid unintentionally excluding.
