Diversity at Oak Street Health 2023 Report
See how we’re building a team of diverse Oakies that help shape our business and reflect our communities in which we serve.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion make us stronger. That’s why Oak Street Health is proud to support People Resource Groups. PRGs are voluntary, team member-led groups focused on fostering diversity, inclusion, and belonging.
These groups help team members (known as “Oakies”) build stronger internal and external connections; offer social, educational, and outreach activities; and create development opportunities for future Leaders. Membership in any group is open to all Oakies.
