Welcoming and supportive culture
Our work is powered by our employees. UCare believes regardless of differences, everyone deserves to feel appreciated, respected and embraced. Our goal is to be a workplace where everyone feels like they belong and are welcome to express themselves and participate. At UCare, we are intentional about uplifting all voices because differences make a difference.
Diversity, equity and inclusion
To provide fair and equitable access to care for our members of all races, cultures, incomes, ages, religions and abilities, we are building a workforce that understands and is prepared to meet the diverse needs of the members we serve. We know a workplace culture where all employees feel respected and engaged can only be achieved through addressing the impact of all forms of bias and prejudice in our practices and policies. We build formal and informal connection points within and across the many unique identities reflected in our workforce to deepen our understanding of one another and foster an inclusive culture.

UCare’s executive leadership team embodies transparency, open communication and flexibility to lead the way in improving lives, supporting communities and achieving health equity.
Commitment to community
We carry our mission into the community further by fostering a culture of giving back. We offer meaningful opportunities and paid time off for employees to volunteer. Whether it’s raking leaves for seniors, donating blood to the Red Cross or dropping off Meals on Wheels deliveries, we’re proud to strengthen our community together.
