Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Southern Bancorp was founded to have a focus on building wealth in communities of color, and to fulfill that mission, we want to ensure that our culture embraces, among other things, these ideals throughout our organization. A 33-member committee came together in 2020, representing all of our regions, positions, races and genders. This committee’s work will launch a new set of DE&I guidelines and goals in 2021 to ensure that our focus remains where it should be—being wealth builders for everyone—with emphasis on everyone.
