City of Sacramento Employee Resource Groups are groups formed by employees across all demographics—race, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, education, geography, military status, occupation, field, etc. ERGs help create a sense of community for groups who may otherwise feel isolated; contribute to the creation and maintenance of an inclusive corporate culture; build relationship with management and trust within the organization; provide a “go to” source for information specific to the group, acting as an information source as well as an idea source; serve as a bridge to various communities for marketing and recruiting; and provide opportunities for proactive responses to issues rather than reactive. This link to the ERGs may only be viewed by using the City's internal website - NEXUS.
