PRSA-NY launched Feeling My PRide to better serve our LGBTQI+ community within PRSA-NY and those outside of the organization, to encourage inclusivity and belonging within PRSA-NY and beyond throughout the PR and media communications industry as a whole.

We are excited to showcase Feeling My PRide Trailblazers to celebrate Global Pride within the PR and communications industry.
