LGBT-owned businesses gaining ground in Sonoma County
The gains made by the LGBT community within corporate America have been impressive in recent years.
A record 366 businesses achieved a top rating in an annual survey by the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s leading LGBT advocacy group, that measures corporate policies, benefits and practices for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender workers.
In another important signal, 379 businesses — from Coca-Cola Co. to Goldman Sachs Inc. — declared their support for same-sex marriage this year by filing an amicus brief with the Supreme Court.
