Differences Make Us Stronger

Operating as one team, we celebrate the more than 280,000 individuals who make us better. We value the collaboration and respect between us that make us stronger, and we cherish the differences that make us richer.

“At Kaiser Permanente, equity, inclusion, and diversity are inextricably linked to our mission, and are part of everything we do. We know that having a diverse and inclusive workforce makes Kaiser Permanente a better place to receive health care, a better partner in the communities we serve, and a better place to work.”

– Ronald L. Copeland, MD, FACS, senior vice president and chief equity, inclusion, and diversity officer

Diversity, inclusion, and culturally competent medical care are defining characteristics of Kaiser Permanente's past, present, and future. From recognizing the powerful contributions of those with disabilities, to supporting those who served in our military with the means to enhance their skills, maintaining industry-leading levels of diversity and inclusion not only fills us with pride, but enables us to fulfill our mission, sustain our business objectives, and provide the best high-quality care to our members and patients.

The Proof In The Pudding

Communities Within Our Community

At Kaiser Permanente, we operate as one team and one family. Our richly diverse and tight-knit community consistently offers networking, mentoring, skill building, and support. Not only that, we also deliver powerful programs that connect co-workers in meaningful ways, including career, culture, and community groups. With thousands of members of our workforce currently participating, these Business Resource Groups (BRGs) allow close circles of peers to connect in meaningful ways.
