Enjoy the DIVERSITY We Bring to the Table!

The U.S Coast Guard Auxiliary is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment, a journey guided by the deeply held values of Honor, Respect, and Devotion to Duty, as America's Guardians.

Diversity & Inclusion is about acknowledging differences and adapting practices to create an inclusive environment in which diverse skills, perspectives and backgrounds are valued. The leaders in Flotilla 1607 understand the individual differences among our members that arise from a broad range of backgrounds and lifestyles, recognizing the value of using those different perspectives and ideas to enhance the quality and outcomes of our mission.*

DIVERSITY VISION
The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary will be recognized as the “Volunteer Organization of Choice” for American citizens interested in promoting recreational boating safety, security of America’s waterways and improved methods of educating the boating public. We will recruit, retain, train and deploy a ready, diverse and highly-skilled volunteer work force to contribute to Coast Guard Auxiliary mission success.

Flotilla 1607 is committed to these values. Last year we earned the National Diversity Management Three Star Award of Excellence and we will continue to strive to embody the very nature of selfless service achieved through the contributions of each individual.
