Belonging at the Iowa PCA is:
- Gaining an understanding and respecting the unique characteristics that each person brings to our organization
- More trusting relationships and a sense of safety and connectedness for our team members
- An environment of fairness and equitable treatment for all those we interact with -- our team members, community health center members, vendors, partners, and patients
- Celebrates the intrinsic value of humanity in all its forms
- Progress toward our vision of “health equity for all” leading to better health outcomes, particularly for under-resourced populations and people disadvantaged by discrimination or with access to fewer opportunities
