Conference attendees participate in a breakout session during the Department of the Air Force Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility Conference Sept. 18-20, 2023 at The George Washington University in Washington, D.C. This year's conference theme, "Respect, Recruit, Retain and Ready," aimed to empower all Airmen and Guardians. SAF DI's Mission and Strategy evolve around the understanding that the strength of the DAF doesn't just lie in our technological prowess or advanced weaponry, but in Airmen and Guardians who volunteer to serve.
