Diversity and Inclusion

Creating a safe, culturally competent, diverse, inclusive and caring environment is at the foundation of everything we do at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). As a leading pediatric healthcare system, we know how many individual lives we impact on a daily basis, and we take our responsibility seriously to uphold these values and standards.

Inclusion and diversity are critical drivers for creating the ideal experience for every patient, family, employee and member of the communities we serve. CHOP’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion (ODI) empowers and supports our diverse workforce, patient population and community to advance Children's Hospital of Philadelphia's mission of excellent patient care, innovative research and quality professional education.
