How does the Prince George’s County Planning Department define diversity?
Diversity within the Planning Department refers to those differences between individuals employed in our organization, each of whom contributes to a rich and varied work environment. These differences include (but are not limited to) race, gender, ethnicity, age, personality, sexual orientation, physical abilities, cognitive style, religious and political beliefs, economic status, and education. The concept of diversity encompasses acceptance and respect of individual differences, and the exploration of these differences in a positive and nurturing environment. It is about moving beyond mere tolerance of differences to understanding, embracing and celebrating the varied dimensions of each individual and recognizing their value to our workplace.

What is the Culture Change Initiative (CCI)?

It is designed to create a corporate culture that is attractive for recruitment and retention, reduces negative employee perceptions, and improves staff morale. Through training and staff support, CCI continues to provide a learning environment to help our Department better serve the residents of Prince George’s County and encourage personal growth in a culturally rich work environment.
