 Diversity Month – a time to recognize and understand our differences, be it gender, race, ethnicity, faith, sexual orientation and other factors, while honoring the common essence of humanity. By appreciating our similarities and differences, the month aims to get people to foster a deeper understanding of others, regardless of who they are, what they are, or how they live. It’s also an opportunity to increase diversity in the workplace and various industries.
Diversity is crucial in assuring that we can understand each other in deeper ways that help keep us humble and open to the fact that the world does not only revolve around our beliefs. It can help develop us into better people, as it increases our understanding of human nature. The importance of diversity itself can benefit us in all aspects of our lives. In the business world, having a diverse workforce is important to ensure the inclusion of different perspectives and ideas when making decisions. Doing so can nurture employees to develop strong interpersonal skills that can benefit them both in the office and out. In social situations, engaging with facets of other cultures, perspectives and lifestyles can help us open our eyes to how the world works. It does not bind us solely to our norms and opens up our horizons.
The root of all the world’s problems is the refusal to appreciate others. It is natural for humans to fear what they don’t know. Thus, celebrating Diversity Month pushes us to seek this knowledge so that we can build a tolerant world that welcomes everyone, regardless of who they are or where they come from.

May is...
Mental Health Awareness Month:
Break the stigma surrounding mental health by championing the efforts of mentally disabled people, addressing stress and anxiety in the workplace and encouraging MPI members to build boundaries to prioritize self-care and holistic wellness.
Asian & Pacific Islander Heritage Month:
The National 2023 theme for the observance of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month in May: "Advancing Leaders Through Opportunity." Members of this diverse community have helped shape American life for almost two hundred years. By hearing other's stories and uplifting different voices within the AAPI community, we can all reach a greater understanding of and appreciation for the experiences of this diverse group of people as well as the positive impact they’ve had (and continue to have) on our country.
Hearing & Speech Awareness Month:
Speech and Hearing Awareness is observed in May every year. It’s a month dedicated to raising awareness for communication disorders, helping patients overcome any type of hearing and speech illness, as well as celebrating the contributions of professionals in the speech-language-hearing industry. From speech-language pathologists, audiologists, hearing scientists, and other support personnel, we pay them respect for the help they have given, which includes assisting their patients and providing life-altering treatments. This awareness month supports S.L.P. patients and the efforts to eradicate the stigma attached to communication disorder.
