In 2022, Mayor Eric Garcetti instructed every City department to prepare and submit Racial and Gender Equity Action Plans. Departments were instructed to develop feasible and data driven plans that are rooted in racial and gender equity that provide clear benefits and opportunities for historically marginalized people groups.
Since 2022, LAFPP has taken the following actions:

• On an annual basis, LAFPP employees and Commissioners are required to take DEI training to increase cultural and racial awareness, improve communication amongst culturally diverse staff, reduce subtle racism and discrimination, and improve relationships and knowledge for individuals of diverse races that have been traditionally marginalized. Since 2022, we are proud to announce that all LAFPP employees have completed the required DEI training on an annual basis.
• Post Anti-Hate posters within common areas of the workplace.
• Make employees aware of non-profit and professional organizations that provide support to individuals of diverse racial groups who have been historically marginalized. These groups offer employment training, Civil Service test preparation, interview coaching, and educational scholarships to City employees.
