We are committed to ensuring Military Equal Opportunity for each Soldier. The Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center and Presidio of Monterey Equal Opportunity leaders, managers, and supervisors shall ensure that individuals are judged solely based on merit and ability and with respect for the differences that make us stronger.

A workplace free from unlawful discrimination is central to maintaining a mission-ready workplace. We must keep an environment free of harassment, including verbal or physical conduct that creates an intimidating or counterproductive work environment for any individual.

We are fully aware that achieving these goals will require both a sincere commitment to and active participation in our Military Equal Opportunity efforts. That is our expectation of our leaders, managers, supervisors, and employees. Our office is fully committed to ensuring all personnel have the maximum opportunity for selection, advancement, retention, and recognition.

Therefore, we charge our leaders to empower Soldiers with the means necessary to reach their full potential. We also expect each Soldier to demonstrate their talents and cooperation in helping our leaders meet this expectation.
