Happy National Pride Month Viewfinders! This week we’re joined by Pride VMC’s Erin Spencer, CVT, VTS (ECC) to discuss correctly using pronouns and inclusion in veterinary practice. It’s good one!

Hosts Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, RVT begin by emphasizing the importance of the recent Federal proclamation declaring June National Pride Month. Beckie asks Erin to share how this makes members of the LBGTQ+ community feel and Dr. Ward emphasizes the impact national declarations carry in society. 

Erin shares tips on correctly using pronouns in the workplace and how to help a co-worker navigate the sometimes intimidating veterinary clinic cultures to encourage inclusivity. 

Viewfinders, this is another important topic we believe needs more discussion within our profession. How is your clinic celebrating Pride month? How are you handling pronoun usage in your team? Share your experiences with us on Facebook or Instagram.
