The 2023 IDEA (Inclusion Diversity Equity Awareness) Awards
DJ Pastor Rock is one of the 2023 IDEA (Inclusion Diversity Equity Awareness) Award winners!
The honorees of the fourth annual IDEA (Inclusion Diversity Equity Awareness) Awards stand out as champions of diversity and inclusion in their workplaces and in the community. The awards are presented by Buffalo Business First, along with platinum sponsors M&T Bank and Phillips Lytle LLP.
While diversity represents demographic differences such as race, religion, gender, sexual orientation and disability, inclusion means a feeling of belonging and how well people are valued, respected, accepted and encouraged to participate in an organization.
