We Value Diversity

At Elation Communications, we believe that diversity is not just a buzzword, but a fundamental strength that drives innovation, creativity, and success. Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is woven into the fabric of our organization and reflected in every aspect of our work.

We recognize that individual differences, unique life experiences, and diverse perspectives are invaluable assets that contribute to our collective success. Our team embraces a wide range of backgrounds, cultures, identities, and talents, creating a rich tapestry of ideas and approaches that benefit our clients and our company.

Diversity Roots

Our diversity statement is rooted in the following principles:

  • Inclusion: We foster an inclusive environment where every team member feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their best work.
  • Equal Opportunity: We are committed to providing equal opportunities for all, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or socioeconomic background.
  • Cultural Competence: We continuously strive to enhance our cultural competence, ensuring that we can effectively communicate and collaborate across diverse communities.
  • Representation: We actively seek to build a team that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve, recognizing that diverse representation leads to better outcomes for our clients.
  • Continuous Learning: We encourage ongoing education and dialogue about diversity, equity, and inclusion, promoting a culture of growth and understanding.

Our Beliefs

As a minority-owned business with offices in the Washington, D.C. Metro Area, we are uniquely positioned to understand and address the diverse needs of our clients. Our commitment to diversity extends beyond our internal practices to the work we do for our clients, ensuring that their communication strategies are inclusive and resonate with diverse audiences.

We believe that by embracing diversity, we not only create a more vibrant and dynamic workplace but also deliver more innovative and effective solutions for our clients. At Elation Communications, diversity is not just a statement – it’s a core value that drives our success and helps us build stronger connections with the communities we serve.

Professional and Personal

Jerrica is one of the most talented marketing and communications managers I know. I was always impressed by her professionalism, commitment, and positive attitude. She is a renaissance woman who can write and design as well as manage projects; and if she didn’t know how to do something, she went out and learned it! Jerrica is a creative, methodical, diligent, and reliable individual who took ownership of every project she was assigned and consistently delivered a high quality product – on time and within budget. We made a great team, and I could not have done my job without her. I highly recommend Jerrica for any marketing and communications role.
