About the Pride Power Breakfast Program

Pride Power Breakfasts are a great way to start anyone's business day. These popular events attract dozens of eager workplace equality activists and offer timely discussion topics.

Many well-known companies have supported Out & Equal by hosting Breakfasts. In turn, the events encourage ongoing dialogue regarding current diversity issues in the workplace.

In May 2006 Laurie Lippin, Ph.D. lead the workshop "Making Whiteness Visible: LGBT Internal Diversity Issues" at the California State Automobile Association's (CSAA) San Francisco headquarters.
