RMLEB Contributes to EBAA's Pride Blogs

Eye Bank Association of America decided to “pass the mic” and invited LGBTQ+ members to submit Pride-themed blog posts in June. Kerry, a member of Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Bank’s community and professional relations team, took up that invitation. They shared their perspective on what Pride really means: A place to belong.
