Expired Diversity and Inclusion: The LGBTQ Movement and the Role of Communication Professionals

Join the PRSA National Capital Chapter for an interactive event on the role of communication professionals in supporting diversity and inclusion, including from and among the LGBTQ community.

Our special guest speaker is Del Galloway, APR, Fellow. Del is currently senior vice president of communications for Wells Fargo Atlantic Region, where he is responsible for all media relations, internal communications and executive support in Maryland, North Carolina, Virginia and Washington – a role he assumed after serving several years as vice president of communications for United Way Worldwide.

In 2004, Del served as national President and CEO of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA). A longstanding advocate and champion for the LGBTQ community and diversity, equity and inclusion broadly, Del is the first openly gay CEO of PRSA and established the organization’s National Diversity Committee. In 2018, he received PRSA’s Gold Anvil Award, the Society’s highest individual honor – recognizing lifetime achievement in public relations.

This event will feature opening remarks, followed by an interactive dialogue between Del and participants.
