Last week, the U.S. Air Force announced the launch of two new diversity and inclusion programs, including a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer/Questioning initiative team (LIT) and the Indigenous Nations Equality Teams (INET).
The two panels are intended to identify barriers affecting the employment, advancement and retention of members of those two identity groups.
“The establishment of these two teams builds on the successes of the Department of the Air Force’s other teams and allows the Department of the Air Force to identify and address the issues impacting diversity and inclusion for Airmen and Guardians,” the Air Force said in an April 26 press release.
