DEI Commitment Statement
Lutheran Social Services of Southern California (LSSSC) views diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging as the road to achieving inclusive excellence and fostering a culture where everyone can succeed. Our community is made of staff, volunteers, stakeholders, funders, and the populations that we serve who pull from a complex range of backgrounds to contribute to the achievements of our common goals.
Our employees comprise a wide range of backgrounds and characteristics, and we believe those differences should be celebrated and valued. Whether it’s race, religion, gender, national origin, ancestry, color, language, age, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic information/characteristics, veteran status, political affiliation, or any other characteristic, these are parts that contribute to our experiences as humans, and ultimately to the knowledge and expertise that make them a valuable asset to Lutheran Social Services of Southern California.
LSSSC is committed and determined that there is access, opportunity, and advancement for all individuals. We are always looking for ways in which we can cultivate an inclusive work environment, strengthen our cultural competency, and train our managers and employees to provide opportunities for growth and development.
It is our intention that all our employees, regardless of any particular background or characteristic, always treat each member of our community with the same dignity and respect.
