UC Davis Health PRIDE

Local pride picnic coming soon!

Kick off to pride month, how are you celebrating? Or, how are you advancing the LGBTQ+ community this month?

What is something relating to LGBTQ+ that’s so habitual you didn’t recognize the need for change until a later time?

Saw that President Joe Biden signed a Presidential Proclamation this morning for our Transgender community. If you are Transgender and part of the UC Davis Health Staff and need help, please know we have resources- connect with us, we're here for you! From the article: " International Transgender Day of Visibility is a time to celebrate transgender and non-binary people around the globe and acknowledge the determination it takes to live openly and authentically." https://www.hrc.org//human-rights-campaign-honors-internat

From the Desk of Chancellor Gary S. May ________________________________________ To the UC Davis Community... A memorial service for George Floyd will be held in Minneapolis today. In this message, the University of California Senate faculty representing all of the UC campuses, calls on the UC community to observe a moment of silence and reflection. We invite the UC Davis community to honor this moment at 11 a.m. Pacific time today, June 4. I hope you’ll pause with me to recognize a life lost unnecessarily. Please join me in this observance. Sincerely, Gary S. May Chancellor
