1. The Coast Guard introduced its Diversity and Inclusion Education and Awareness Program (DIEAP) as outlined in REFs (A) and (B). The purpose of the DIEAP, implemented by the Office of Diversity and Inclusion (CG-127), is to support the total workforce, consistent  with the Commandant's Guiding Principles and the 2019-2023 USCG Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan through personnel, throughout the Service who can directly support local commands, LDACs, and our workforce through diversity and inclusion education and awareness and coaching support.
2. The Diversity and Inclusion Education and Awareness Program (DIEAP) supports our total workforce through virtual, live, and hybrid Diversity and Inclusion training sessions provided to units across the Coast Guard with a cadre of 95 change agents. The level of engagement with units across the Service continues to increase each month as units become more aware of the benefits derived from the DIEAP services, as indicated by continual increases in requests for Change Agent-led Diversity and Inclusion training sessions.
3. DIEAP services can now be accessed via a SharePoint site provided by COMDT (CG-127). Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) Change Agent training and support can be requested through SharePoint site at:

4. The specific services that units can request include:
  a. D&I Training: Available in two formats- a two-hour and four-hour format. The two-hour training introduces D&I Education and Awareness concepts through facilitated training and multimedia content. The four-hour format includes the same D&I Education and Awareness concepts offered in the two-hour training, as well as additional interactive activities to support increased D&I education and awareness. D&I Change Agents can support both in-person and virtual training requests. The training is kept to a maximum of 20 attendees to allow for optimal participation, interaction, and value-added discussion. Units can request D&I training sessions for their unit. Personnel from any unit can also sign up for posted open sessions.
  b. D&I Empowerment Coaching: Intended for Commanding Officers, Officers in Charge, and Program Managers who want to embed the inclusive behaviors of fairness, openness, effective communication, empowerment, and support in the workplace. On a space-available basis, other personnel may request coaching to strengthen their D&I self-awareness and cultural fluency within the total workforce. All coaching sessions are confidential and requested and completed on an individual basis.
5. For questions about the D&I Education and Awareness Program, please contact the DIEAP Program Manager, Ms. Melissa [redacted]Â Â at:Â [redacted]@uscg.mil.

As we all know that the primary goal here is to get paid and the secondary goal is to grow the cadre, you should have asked yourself:
1. Who got the contract to create the training material, and what was the cost?
2. "Change Agent" - I'm sorry, I prefer the term "Commissar." So there is a cadre of 95 Commissars. What is their salary? Are they contractors, GS, or a collateral duty? What is the cost of their salaries and how many hours per year - combined - are they spending in this job responsibility?
3. 2-hrs and 4-hrs training sessions. OK. How many man-hours (if one may use such a term) are spend each year on this, i.e. 1,000 Coastguardsmen (if one may use such a term) take the 4-hr course = 4,000 man-hours?
You may have other questions. Let us know in comments.
Mind numbing insanity. This will do so much more damage than good as it undercuts belief that "the system" stands for common sense and treating everybody the same. It indicts the Service. Reminds me of that movie they made us watch after Clinton assumed the Presidency around the time of the intro of "don't ask don't tell." Remember all the hollywood actors telling us how we should think? I remember sitting with about 30 other 2nd Fleet officers. Nobody said anything but there was sighing and disgusted looks all around. Somehow a C2F Chief was assigned the duty to present to us - poor guy.
in 2024/2025, there better be a thorough housecleaning
hope the next (R) president runs with that as part of the platform
