Promoting diversity, equity and inclusion is a strategic priority at Tufts Health Plan.

Through our employee programs and policies, community engagement, member outreach and philanthropic giving, we’re taking strong steps to promote racial justice, economic prosperity and workplace equality. We’re also actively working to address the health disparities laid bare by the COVID-19 pandemic.

We see all of this work as a natural and necessary extension of our core mission: to improve the health and wellness of the diverse communities we serve.

Committed to our Communities

A Message from President and CEO Tom Croswell
