In 2022, Devereux was named a “Top 3 Healthcare Diversity Organization” by the Healthcare Diversity Council as a result of its: DEIB initiatives to foster a more inclusive and equitable work environment; contributions to the healthcare industry; dedication to professional excellence; and commitment to recruiting and retaining individuals from all populations.
