Our community program seeks to deliver on several guiding pillars: cultural awareness, talent pipeline, community outreach and working as OnePTC, all with the goal of making a difference in the lives of our employees and the lives of our patients. We believe in creating an environment where all people feel they can bring their whole self to work and have a sense of belonging while performing at their absolute best.

Our Community Resource Groups in Action
In June 2023, PTC Pride orchestrated an engaging and informative Pride Month celebration. They crafted and paraded a vibrant float in the New Jersey Pride Parade, a gesture that drew colleagues from across the region to Asbury Park in a show of solidarity.
The She Rises Community Group brought together company leaders, in 2023, to underscore the criticality of nurturing talent and expanding professional development avenues for women of color. Through a series of insightful meetings, She Rises focused on dismantling systemic barriers and fostering an environment where women of color are empowered to ascend to new heights in their careers.
The diversity of the Southern Cone, Andean Countries and Mexico (SAM) region requires a special level of people and engagement to succeed – people moved by passion and entrepreneurism that want to be better and to make the world better for the patients and their families. Those are the people we have at PTC in LATAM.
