Honoring Women's Equality Day

Colette Ryan, Senior Director, Operations, reflects: "Women’s Equality Day celebrates the achievements of women’s rights activists and is also a reminder of the unique daily struggles that women continue to face, for example the unequal representation of women and women of color in many facets of life, including the workplace. These inequities underscore the importance of fostering an inclusive, welcoming, and equitable workplace culture which can help break down barriers that women face at work. I’m proud to be part of Alkermes' WIN Employee Resource Group which provides a platform to champion and advocate for equitable practices for women and women of color across our organization."

Andrea Dacayanan, Associate Director, Project Management, shared: "Society has come a long way since the 1920’s when women were granted the right to vote in the United States. There is still work to be done to cultivate an environment where barriers are broken in order for women to overcome discrimination and bias, and an acknowledgement is the first step. As co-lead of WIN at Alkermes, I celebrate Women’s Equality Day and recognize the many strong allies that we have, championing women’s accomplishments, and advocating for women to be heard and thrive."
