Mission success requires every employee to be a valued, motivated, and highly functioning team member. ODEO plays a critical role in making that happen.
We do so by helping NASA to eliminate EEO barriers and workplace conflicts that can diminish trust, impair teamwork, compromise safety and ultimately undermine excellence.
The NASA Commitment to Diversity and Equal Opportunity NASA provides an environment that honors integrity, excellence, teamwork, fairness, and equity. We strive to exemplify in all of our decision making the principle that employees have the freedom to compete on a fair and level playing field. We will continue to provide a workplace that is free from all forms of illegal discrimination, including harassment and retaliation. Upon request and as appropriate, we will continue to provide reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities. Above all, we must view our commitment to equal employment opportunity as a matter of personal integrity and accountability.

Journeying beyond Earth’s orbit, as NASA is committed to do, will require a diverse team of many individuals with the best minds, the most comprehensive expertise, the broadest knowledge, the strongest talent, and the greatest integrity. As NASA’s Diversity and Inclusion Champion, I believe it is incumbent on every member of the NASA community to advocate for, promote, and most importantly, practice the principles of diversity and inclusion in everything that we do. This means making diversity and inclusion integral in our efforts to identify and develop the best talent, create and serve on high-performing teams, achieve scientific and engineering excellence, maintain integrity in all that we do, and ultimately, realize mission success.

ODEO's Organizational Goals
In supporting mission success, we partner with our Center EO Offices, Diversity Managers, key Offices across the Agency, and external stakeholders to achieve the following goals:
Goal 1. Advance NASA's efforts to be a model Agency for equal employment opportunity (EEO), including fostering NASA’s workforce diversity, eliminating EEO barriers and deficiencies, and addressing EEO concerns.
Goal 2. Engage the Agency in proactive equal opportunity (EO) and diversity-inclusion initiatives and programs to enhance workplace productivity and efficiency.
Goal 3. Advance EO in NASA-funded science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and related programs in contributing to the Agency's STEM pipeline development.
