Diversity and Inclusion

Diversity and Inclusion at Tivity Health

At Tivity Health, we are committed to diversity and inclusion. We believe we can better serve our colleagues, customers, members and partners with a DREAM for a more equitable tomorrow.

Mission

DEFINE internal and external diversity and inclusion initiatives

REFLECT underrepresented groups in our colleague, partner and member bases

EDUCATE and engage all those that we serve to elevate the learning and the conversation focused on all dimensions of diversity, especially the primary dimensions of race, ethnicity, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, mental/physical ability and age

ACT on our learnings

MEASURE the success of our efforts so that we can share best practices on what is working with other organizations and seek support for our challenges and gaps

Vision

At Tivity Health, our vision is to create and nurture an environment where all colleagues have a seat at the table and all voices have the opportunity to be heard. That means we recognize, acknowledge and celebrate our differences and our backgrounds – the things that make us unique. It means we have engaging, robust, and honest conversations surrounding equity and inclusion where diversity of thought and continual learning is the norm.

Our goal is to strengthen these conversations and the talent of our colleagues to advocate for culturally-relevant products and services to meet the needs of our members, customers, partners and stakeholders.
