Employee Resource Groups
Connection, company and community
We have seven vibrant employee resource groups representing women, veterans, Black, Latinx, Asian, disabled and LGBTQ+ employees and their allies. These groups are established and run by employees at all levels of our organization and provide cultural education, career development, and networking opportunities as well as other relevant programming. They not only bring their members together to better understand, value, and respect each other, they are also an important extension of our Blue Shield Brand, volunteering and serving as ambassadors at events such as the Kingdom Day Parade, Pride events, Veteran Stand Down events, and many, many more.
