Diversity & Inclusion

Each HI USA hostel offers a diverse and inclusive community where, whoever you are, you belong. Because our guests are our partners in creating welcoming environments, please be sure to review our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion to understand our expectations of all guests.

HI USA’s Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

YOU are welcome at HI USA, where we respect and appreciate diversity in all forms:  age, race, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, socioeconomic class, social status, national origin, religious beliefs, level of education, professional/volunteer experience, veteran status, body type, differing abilities, and everything else that makes you, YOU.

And while HI USA classifies some shared spaces as men’s, women’s or mixed, we want everyone of all gender identities to feel comfortable utilizing the spaces that are consistent with their gender identity or expression.

We do not permit expressions of hate, harassment, or intolerance, nor unwanted or unwelcome advances, of any kind.
Such behavior may lead to eviction from our hostels.

Please be open and respectful while you encounter new people and new perspectives!
