Diversity
Statement
As a
volunteer organization, the Auxiliary has
its own uniqueness. Our members serve in
communities throughout the country; come
from different social, ethnic, religious and
economic backgrounds, yet join together to
contribute their time and talents toward the
common cause of recreational boating safety.
We will recognize our diversity and remove
all barriers, real or perceived, so that our
current and potential members will feel an
increased pride and honor in their
membership. The Coast Guard Auxiliary will:
-
HONOR the
members' desire for training and
meaningful involvement, so that we can
enhance the Coast Guard's capabilities
and promote safety in the boating
community.
-
RESPECT
the volunteer nature of our organization
and its unique attributes, which enable
us to fulfill our role as an integral
part of Team Coast Guard.
-
Recognize
and encourage DEVOTION TO DUTY, while
understanding the diversity of our
volunteers and their varying abilities
to give of their time.
-
PROVIDE
our current and potential members with a
positive environment that will promote
membership in all segments of our
population, enhance their opportunities
to serve and increase their desire to
remain as long term contributing
members.
