Inclusion and Diversity Start Here
“At Care Sherpa, what unites us is our passion for serving: our patients, communities, and each other – we call this our Service Heart. With the power of our whole team behind it, this trait can move mountains. In addition, a diversity of voices and opinions strengthens our Service Heart and helps us connect even more patients to the healthcare they need.
We have a responsibility as a company that serves diverse communities to be representative of those communities.”
Volunteering in the Community
Care Sherpa in the Community

Being able to give back to the communities that shape us isn’t just a nice idea; at Care Sherpa, we’re making it a priority. To accomplish this, Care Sherpa offers paid time off for employees who want to volunteer in their communities. We call it VTO (volunteer-time-off). It’s one of the ways we’re working to give everyone the opportunity to make a difference in a way that matters to them.
Giving back is our mission

We are currently expanding our hiring process into even more markets. Part of our drive is to hire in the communities where our clients are based. This way, our patients get to benefit from working with someone who knows the area, and we are able to create jobs in the communities where we work.
Leveling Up: Our Commitment to DEI
Diversity is about sharing our unique perspectives, talents, and experiences to mutually benefit the teams we are in. Modern companies agree that diverse teams produce better outcomes. Care Sherpa is committed to making true diversity – of race, gender, sexuality, neurodiversity, and any other protected class – our daily reality.
We know that we still have plenty of work to do to reach that reality, but by making this commitment now we hope to shine a light on areas that need improvement. We look forward to sharing our initiatives to support this mission in the near future.
At Care Sherpa, we are committed to bringing our service-oriented heart to all people. We think that creating a culture of mutual respect, inclusion, and opportunity is just the beginning.
By actively celebrating our differences as a team we find new ways to celebrate the things that unite us. We are parents, students, industry veterans, and patients just like you. Cultivating a true diversity of lived experiences and perspectives helps us better relate to our clients and to their patients.
Diversity is not some far-off concept– it is something tangible that starts here and now. Care Sherpa is taking action by seeking to build a team as diverse as the populations that we serve.
