AAA Insurer honored by Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones

WALNUT CREEK, Calif., December 29, 2017 – CSAA Insurance Group, a AAA Insurer, received the 2017 Excellence in Diversity Award from the California Department of Insurance. Granted by Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones, the award recognized the company for its commitment to supplier diversity and for exceptional diversity on its governing board. CSAA Insurance Group received the award at the Sixth Annual Insurance Diversity Summit in Sacramento, hosted by the California Insurance Diversity Initiative.

“CSAA Insurance Group is a leader in the field of diversity within the insurance industry, and I commend them for furthering the goals of the initiative and partnering with us to ensure success," said Jones.

Since 2013, CSAA Insurance Group has steadily increased its support for diverse suppliers and minority-owned businesses, and was previously recognized with the California Department of Insurance’s Supplier Diversity Champion and Supplier Diversity Trailblazer awards.

“We strive to be a leader in diversity and inclusion, to benefit both our employees – who can bring their whole selves to work every day – and our customers, who know that we understand the rich diversity of their needs,” said Marie Andel, chief people and culture officer. “Diverse ideas and perspectives are key to innovating a great future for our AAA members.”

The Annual Insurance Diversity Summit is hosted by the California Insurance Diversity Initiative, which was established by Commissioner Jones in 2011 to focus on diversity issues within the state’s multibillion dollar insurance industry.
