 It is Steininger’s intent to foster a work environment that provides acceptance, respect and sensitivity for all cultural differences, including but not limited to those related to ethnicity, race, gender, sexual orientation, disability and religion.

 AND

 Steininger also desires to ensure that all people entering into our care receive equitable and effective treatment, provided in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner.  We aspire to provide programs and services which eliminate racial and ethnic healthcare disparities, and which improve the health and well-being of the individuals, families, and communities we serve.
