Vice President Carl Mulert has been appointed Co-Chair of the #IATSEpride Committee! A founding member of the committee, VP Mulert is the first openly queer person to serve on the Intl’s Executive Board and serves as IATSE’s liaison to the AFL-CIO’s Department of Civil, Human and Women’s Rights.

Today we celebrate trans, nonbinary and gender-diverse people while recognizing that trans rights are under attack across the U.S. & Canada. Visibility matters, but so does action. Learn more, speak up, challenge misinformation and support those fighting for trans rights. #TransDayOfVisibility #TDOV

The second full week in April is STD (STI) Awareness Week. It provides an opportunity to raise awareness about STD/Is and how they impact our lives; reduce STD/I-related stigma, fear, and discrimination; and ensure people have the tools and knowledge to prevent, test for, and treat STD/Is.

Every April 10th is National Youth HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. #NYHAAD educates the public about the impact of the HIV/AIDS on youth and highlights the work youth do to strengthen the fight against the HIV/AIDS epidemic. #iatsepride
