Pace Suburban Bus: Accelerating Inclusivity in Chicago’s LGBTQ+ parades

In recent years, LGBTQ+ pride parades have become a platform for businesses and organizations to demonstrate their support for diversity and inclusion. Among these trailblazers is PACE, a Chicago-based suburban bus company that made headlines for its vibrant presence and commitment to the LGBTQ+ community at the annual pride parade. With its remarkable design aesthetics and enthusiastic participation, PACE not only captured the attention of parade-goers but also earned recognition from national news outlets like ABC News.

Expanding on the topic of PACE's commitment to inclusivity, another notable initiative undertaken by the company during the LGBTQ+ pride parade was the creation of pronoun pins. Understanding the importance of respecting individuals' gender identities, PACE took a proactive step in normalizing the use of gender pronouns by offering pronoun pins to parade participants and spectators.

By providing these pins, PACE not only demonstrated its understanding of the diversity within the LGBTQ+ community but also created a safe and inclusive space for individuals to express their gender identities authentically. This simple yet impactful gesture showed PACE's dedication to creating an environment where everyone feels seen, heard, and respected.
