Guthrie is dedicated to improving health outcomes and providing high-quality, accessible care to those in underrepresented groups such as the LGBTQ+ community.
This June, Guthrie celebrates Pride Month in recognition of our LGBTQ+ patients, caregivers and community members. We also celebrate in remembrance of the LGBTQ+ individuals throughout history who courageously advocated for dignity and equality for all.

Caregivers Honoring Pride Month
Throughout June, our hospital locations will proudly display Pride flags, signifying our support for the LGBTQ+ community. We invite caregivers to join in the celebration every Friday during the month by wearing Pride-themed accessories, such as jewelry, scarves, or socks. This is an opportunity for our staff to visibly partake in and promote inclusivity.
Pride Month Art Feature
This year, we are excited to showcase the artistic expressions of our caregivers, illustrating their personal reflections on Pride Month. We welcome submissions across all art forms including, but not limited to, paintings, sculptures, drawings, digital creations, and mixed media projects. Caregivers interested in sharing their art should send their works to Jordan Mente at jordan.mente@guthrie.org. All submissions should be appropriate for a professional environment.
