Celebrating Pride at JVA
At JVA, Incorporated (JVA) we take pride in our ongoing contributions to the LGBTQ+ community. Through our LGBTQ+ Employee Resource Group (ERG) and various initiatives, JVA fosters a workplace where gender expression, identity, and sexual orientation are respected and celebrated.
JVA is celebrating Pride Month with upcoming Employee Color Battles in each office, attendance at the June 30, 2024 Boulder Pride Event, and employees are given the option to use the rainbow JVA Logo in their signatures.

Employee Resource Groups
LGBTQ+ ERG
The JVA LGBTQ+ group serves to recognize and enhance diversity and inclusivity for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Non-Binary communities and allies. This group contributes towards our common vision for a workplace where gender expression/identity and sexual orientation is respected and celebrated.
Racial awareness and cultural equity
The RACE ERG promotes racial equity, diversity, and inclusion at JVA by fostering understanding and awareness of racial and cultural issues. We empower underrepresented employees and allies to connect and challenge discrimination through education and engagement. Our goal is to create a safe and inclusive space that values and supports all employees.
Women’s+ Impact Network
JVA’s Women’s+ Impact Network (WIN) is an Employee Resource Group with a mission to empower JVA employees to become leaders and champions in the industry. This is done by facilitating professional growth and reducing gender bias through education, mentorship, visibility, accountability, and engagement to enhance JVA’s strong and cohesive culture.
Young Professionals
The JVA Young Professionals (YP) group serves as a resource to empower and support the growth and success of young professionals and works to establish relationships between young professionals and senior staff. This group is comprised of young professionals from all departments and offices and is designed to bring the young professionals of JVA together to build relationships, share resources, and encourage each other.
