Statement from Board Member Vanessa,

As a proud board member of the MidSouth LGBT Chamber of Commerce, I want to reaffirm our unwavering commitment to uplifting and supporting the transgender and Latino communities throughout our region. We recognize that these communities are integral to our collective success, bringing diverse perspectives, talents, and cultural richness to the business landscape. Our Chamber is dedicated to ensuring every entrepreneur and professional—particularly those from marginalized groups—feels empowered and equipped to thrive.

Through mentorship programs, advocacy efforts, and resource sharing, we strive to break down barriers and open doors of opportunity for our Nonbinary, Transgender, and Latino neighbors. We also stand firmly against discrimination of any kind, acknowledging that true economic and community growth depends on fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can contribute their best. By uniting our voices and efforts, we strengthen not only our community but also our shared vision for a MidSouth where every individual can flourish with dignity and respect.

– Vanessa Rodley
