Pepco, Blade sponsoring LGBTQ ERG networking event
Pepco and the Washington Blade announced plans for a jointly sponsored networking event for D.C.-area LGBTQ Employee Resource Groups to be held Thursday, Oct.
26, 6-8 p.m. at the Pepco Edison Place Gallery (702 8th St., N.W.). The free event will offer a chance for local corporate ERG members to socialize and collaborate around the mission of creating safe and equitable workplaces.
Federal government LGBTQ employee groups have also been invited to participate. “This event allows visibility and partnership among other ERG leads and organizations,” said LaToya Harris, senior administrator of fleet operations for Pepco. “Networking is a great way to exchange and align initiatives with peers.
This event creates a platform for Pepco to share a space with other ERG members from the DC Metro area. We can always learn, teach, and expand through partnership with others.” In addition to networking opportunities, the event will feature keynote remarks from Jonathan Lovitz, senior adviser and director of public affairs at the U.S.
