Organizations need representation that mirrors the community to create equity. It’s key for our customers to see themselves in the company which provides an essential service. Along with our parent company, American Electric Power (AEP), we are dedicated to driving diversity, equity and inclusion. 

One way we are encouraging an inclusive work environment is by empowering employees to engage and lead our employee resource groups. Their priorities focus on building understanding and belonging in the workplace, recruiting and retaining diverse employees and identifying volunteerism opportunities.

Our employee resource groups are:

• Abled and Differently Abled Allies Partnering Together (ADAPT)
• Black Employee Resource Group (BERG)
• Asian-American Employee Partnership (AAEP)
• Hispanic Origin Latin American Employee Resource Group (HOLA)

• Military Veteran Employee Resource Group (MVERG)
• Native American Tribes Interacting Observing Networking (NATION)
• PRIDE Employee Resource Group
• Women @ Work Employee Resource Group (W@W)

We are also committed to working with our communities to advance equity and to facilitate conversations to discuss race and equity issues. For more for information on our diversity, equity and inclusion goals and involvement please visit: www.aep.com/careers/diversity.
