Prism - LGBTQI+ at RAC

RAC's Identity Recourse Group celebrating Pride

In 2020 RAC established its LGBTQI+ Identity Resource Group (IRG) called Prism whilst celebrating Pride in November.

Prism is a voluntary working group that champions a particular identity group and ensures the strategic priorities set by the Inclusion Council are executed.

We want to enhance the recognition, inclusion and belonging of people who identify as or are allies of LGBTQI+.

There is a strong case for enhancing the recognition, inclusion and belonging of people who identify as LGBTQI+ and this is what the IRG will set out to achieve for the organisation and our people, complimenting the already great work our existing IRGs are doing in Gender Equity, Enabling All Abilities and Reconciliation.
