About ZIP Code 20453

ZIP code 20453 is assigned to the Department of Defense's Communications Equal Opportunity Office for the Armed Forces, which handles equal opportunity communications and coordination for military personnel. This office operates as part of the broader DoD equal opportunity program established in response to the Civil Rights Movement.

The DoD's equal opportunity efforts trace back to 1971 when the Defense Race Relations Institute was established, later renamed the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI) in 1979. While DEOMI's main facility is at Patrick Space Force Base in Florida, Washington-based offices like this one coordinate policy communications and liaise with other federal agencies on matters of equal opportunity, diversity, and inclusion across the armed forces.
