PC Danni Gibson states "It is important to me that I can go to work and be my true self. Being visible as a lesbian may encourage others who are struggling" #lesbianvisibilityday #LDoV #ldov2021

Superintendent Emily Harrison on LDoV "We have changed as a service and in general to a more inclusive place, but that wouldn't have happened without everyone who came before us braving the decision to be their whole selves at work, which is why we will stay visible"

Today is Lesbian Day of Visibility. To mark this day, we will be celebrating with profiles of lesbian colleagues. @EngagePolice @ClevelandLGBT @Cleveland_PCC #lesbiandayofvisibility #ldov2021 #LDoV
