Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Our Pledge

American Senior Communities is a diverse collection of people, truly reflective of the communities we serve. We don’t just talk about our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion; we live it every single day through our culture of C.A.R.E. Only through Compassion, Accountability, Relationships and Excellence can we create living and work environments that are enriching, innovative and equitable.

Living a culture of C.A.R.E. is doing the right thing at the right time, the right way, for the right reason. At ASC, we believe that diversity – in backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives – makes us stronger as an organization and an asset to our community.

Employee Heritage Spotlights

Black History Month

Tim Carter

Executive Director, Brownsburg Meadows

The stories, recipes and values passed down from his grandparents come to mind when ASC’s Tim Carter, Executive Director of  Brownsburg Meadows, thinks about Black History Month. At ASC, we are proud to celebrate the achievements and history of African Americans both today and in our past.

Women's History Month

Tonya Gonzales

HR Consultant, ASC Home Office

March is Women’s History Month, and ASC’s HR Consultant Tonya Gonzales finds great meaning in this celebration. “It is a reminder to me of the accomplishments I have  made, and it’s a chance to reflect on the women who lead the way for change.” 

Irish-American Heritage Month

Ashley McNally

President George H.W. Bush issued a proclamation in 1991, designating March as Irish-American Heritage Month. In March we not only recognize St. Patrick’s Day, but we  celebrate Irish culture and its influence in America. ASC’s Ashley McNally, a Talent  Acquisition Sourcer, appreciates her red hair, passed down from her Irish ancestors,  and has a love of Irish music.

Our Commitments

Supplier Diversity

American Senior Communities’ commitment to diversity and inclusion including the suppliers and vendors we work with. We actively seek partnerships with minority, women, veteran and disability-owned companies. ASC recognizes that building and maintaining a community of diverse suppliers provides access to the talent, innovations, and resources we need and which strengthens us.

Equitable Career Pathways

With our aging population, it is now more important than ever as senior care providers to provide well-defined career pathways, especially among minority and underrepresented workers. American Senior Communities invests heavily in career development for current employees. We reach out into our communities to remove barriers for prospective team members who may have fewer opportunities available to them. We partner with several educational systems, providing mentorship and resources to students wanting to join the honorable profession of senior care.
