Our DEI aspirations

ACHE of Greater Philadelphia embraces diversity within the healthcare management field and recognizes that priority as both an ethical and business imperative. ACHE of Greater Philadelphia values diversity and initiatives that promote diversity because they can improve the quality of the organization’s workforce. ACHE of Greater Philadelphia also values and actively promotes diversity in its leaders and members because diverse participation can serve as a catalyst for improved decision-making, increased productivity, and a competitive advantage.
