Disney Launches New Diversity Resource Group SALUTE at Walt Disney World and Disneyland

A new diversity resource group has launched at the Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resorts.

This resource group will help provide a military perspective at the resorts that will enhance experiences for guests and cast members.

The diversity resource groups at Disneyland and Walt Disney World work as resources for cast members and the Walt Disney Company by sharing unique perspectives from diverse communities.

Military cast members at both resorts will be participating in the SALUTE resource group which reflects Disney's longtime support of the military.

SALUTE is the seventh diversity resource group at the Walt Disney World Resort and it is the sixth such group at the Disneyland Resort.

Other groups at the resorts include COMPASS (Community of Pacific Islanders, Asians, and Allies); CastABLE (promotes respect, equality, and appreciation of people with disabilities); FAMILIES (focuses on family-related interests and is only at Walt Disney World); HOLA (Hispanic Organization for Leadership
Advancement); PRIDE (People Respecting Individual Diversities in Everyone); and PULSE (People United to Lead, Serve, and Excel).

The PRIDE diversity resource group serves the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender cast members and provides resources, learning, and a supportive network. The PULSE group works to develop cultural, educational, and professional opportunities for cast members of African heritage.

COMPASS works to enhance guests, cast, and community relations through Asian and Pacific Islander awareness and business practices, and HOLA promotes Hispanic/Latino heritage.
