Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

VEP is committed to addressing long-standing and persistent racial and gender disparities in employment.  VEP believes that employers must do more to eliminate longstanding discrimination in hiring practices based on race, ethnicity, skin color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, nation of origin, criminal record history, disability status, and other backgrounds and identities.  Given VEP’s mission to serve historically disenfranchised and marginalized communities, the organization prioritizes building a pipeline and creating opportunities for candidates that are representative of these communities.
