DiversDiversity and Inclusion Logoity, Equity, Inclusion & Accessibility

There is no other country in the world so widely diverse, yet so deeply committed to being unified as the United States of America. The challenges we face today are far too serious, and the implications of failure far too great, for our Air Force to do less than fully and inclusively leverage our nation’s greatest strength—our remarkably diverse people. Across the force, diversity of background, experience, demographics, perspectives, thought and organization are essential to our ultimate success in an increasingly competitive and dynamic global environment. As airpower advocates, we must be culturally competent and             operationally relevant to effectively accomplish our various missions.

The Department of the Air Force officially established a Diversity and Inclusion office in 2021, with the goal of cultivating an equitable environment for all DAF personnel, by finding and fixing policies and procedures that might have adverse impacts on underrepresented troops and eliminating barriers and other practices that might impede their careers in the Air and Space Forces. You can read the full press release here. With the stand-up of the U.S. Space Force, the newest branch of the Armed Services in 73 years, Space Base Delta 3, Los Angeles Air Force Base, picked up the torch and established a D&I office, hiring Dr. Paul “Tim” Stearns, to take the helm as director.
