Throughout all the changes that CEAP has been through in the last 50 years, our commitment to our community has never wavered. As we reflect on the last 50 years and look forward to the future, CEAP is excited to be strengthening our focus and efforts on what is at our CORE.
Our CORE journey can be understood in the following phases:
C: Define the values that CEAP is Committed to.
Over the last several months, CEAP staff worked together to define our values that we are Committed to: Celebration/Joy, Growth, Intentionality, Health & Wellness, Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.
O: Identify Opportunities to better honor our commitments. (Current Phase!)
We recently invited our CEAP community to be involved as we identify Opportunities for us to better honor our commitments. As part of this phase, we created online surveys for volunteers, staff, and our neighbors who visit our food market to share their experiences and feedback. The responses of these surveys will help us better understand where we can improve our efforts at CEAP and in the community.
R: Create plans and assign Responsibilities at CEAP needed to address our opportunities.
Coming soon!
E: Evaluate how well our plans are honoring our commitments.
Coming soon!
Anti-Discrimination and Affirmative Action Policy
Equal Employment Opportunities
It is the policy of CEAP to maintain a workplace where each individual has equal employment opportunities. An individual’s race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, status with regard to public assistance or status in any group protected by federal, state or local law will not be a factor in any employment opportunities or benefits we offer. Instead, every individual’s qualifications, efforts, hard work and performance in their role to meet the business needs of the Company are among the important legitimate business factors in our employment decisions. We encourage everyone to make the most of their opportunities with CEAP.
Discrimination Prohibited
In support of our policy of equal employment opportunities, discrimination in employment with CEAP based upon race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, status with regard to public assistance or status in any group protected by federal, state or local law, is strictly prohibited. Prohibited discrimination may include, but is not necessarily limited to, basing any decision concerning employment, hiring, training, promotions, discipline, wages, benefits or other terms and conditions of employment on any of the above-mentioned factors. No one, regardless of their position in the Company, is authorized to make or effect such prohibited decisions. Discrimination should immediately be reported as provided for, below.
