WHAT IS ILEAD?

ILEAD is an all Coast Guard Initiative, which was initiated by the Commandant. It stands for Inclusive Leadership, Excellence, and Diversity. It provides our members the opportunity to share concerns and best practices. The Auxiliary has a seat at the table.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?

Diversity, Inclusion, Leadership, and Excellence are priorities of the U.S. Coast Guard and our leadership at the highest levels.

WHAT IS AN LDAC?

LDAC stands for Leadership Diversity Advisory Council.  It is the "local" unit. Its goal is to create and maintain a positive environment where everyone is encouraged to use their unique talents and skills.

HOW IS MY DISTRICT INVOLVED?

Auxiliary LDACs at the District level invite input from members, share with leadership and pass trends up to Auxiliary leadership and the National ILEAD Council for review and possible action. (Districts may take action to solve problems and implement best practices.)

WHAT IS THE BENEFIT TO MY DISTRICT, DIVISION, FLOTILLA?

Improved Recruiting; Member Retention; Re-engagement of members thinking of leaving, as well as Improved efficiency and morale.

These are not pie in the sky goals.  They are statistically proven.

Diversity Calendar Highlights

December Diversity Calendar Highlights: December is a remarkable month filled with celebrations, learning opportunities, and events that showcase the beauty of diversity and unity. Around the globe, families can discover traditions such as Hanukkah, where candles are lit, games are enjoyed, and tasty treats are shared, or Christmas, a time for families to gather, exchange gifts, and sing cheerful songs. Kwanzaa emphasizes important values like unity and creativity, while Bodhi Day invites reflection on the enlightenment of the Buddha. In Guam, December 8 marks the Santa Marian Kamalen holiday, a cherished occasion to honor the island's patron saint, while the 17th Annual Tour of Guam Cycling fosters community spirit and fitness. The winter solstice, celebrated in many cultures, symbolizes the return of longer days with hope and light, and World AIDS Day encourages compassion and awareness. This vibrant month also features Cyber Monday, the National Guard Birthday, Guam’s Flotilla Change of Watch Ceremony, and National Human Rights Month, reminding us to embrace and celebrate the unique qualities that make our world so rich and diverse.

May Diversity Calendar Highlights




GUAM AND SAIPAN FLOTILLA PARTNERSHIP FEATURE:

In May 2024, members can explore a variety of significant diversity and inclusion themes. There’s National Safe Boating Week, which promotes boating and water safety just before summer begins. This month also marks Mental Health Awareness Month, aimed at raising awareness and providing support for mental health issues. Concurrently, National Military Appreciation Month honors the contributions and sacrifices of the military community. Additionally, Better Hearing and Speech Month focuses on raising awareness about communication disorders, while Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month and Jewish Heritage Month both celebrate the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of these communities. Lastly, Haitian Heritage Month is observed to recognize and honor the culture and heritage of the Haitian community. These observances provide an excellent opportunity for educational activities that foster understanding and appreciation for diversity and safety in our communities.  Don’t forget to also join us on May 18, 2024 as we kick off National Safe Boating Week with the D204 Lions International NSBW Story Time Literacy Partnership!
