Advise the CASCOM CG, and all subordinate Commanders on The Military Equal Opportunity (MEO) Program.

We will ensure equal and fair treatment of all military personnel, family members, and DA civilians without regards to race, color, sex (including gender identity and pregnancy), national origin, religion, or sexual orientation. This includes the use of disparaging terms and disparaging treatment based on any of the six basis of discrimination or hazing and bullying which may lead to a hostile work environment. The MEO Program formulates, directs, and sustains a comprehensive effort to maximize human potential and to ensure fair treatment for all Soldiers based solely on merit, performance, and potential in support of readiness.
