Diversity, equity, & inclusion

The American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE) and its chapters are deeply committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) as essential components of ethical and business practices. ACHE believes that fostering diversity within healthcare leadership and its broader membership is crucial for creating a stronger workforce, enhancing decision-making, improving outcomes, and gaining a competitive advantage.

At the heart of ACHE’s mission is the commitment to an inclusive and equitable culture that celebrates the contributions of all individuals, including disadvantaged groups, regardless of race, ethnicity, national origin, gender, religion, age, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability. This commitment is reflected in ACHE’s strategies, structure, and initiatives and is integral to improving the safety and quality of healthcare, strengthening community relations, and positively impacting societal health.

Together, ACHE and its chapters stand united in closing leadership gaps in healthcare management and encouraging diverse participation, ultimately striving to create a healthcare environment that supports the advancement of all individuals, including disadvantaged groups, and improves the health status of society.

The Kentucky ACHE chapter supports and aligns with these ideals as we serve the needs of healthcare executives in our state.
