Taking Action to Increase Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

At the Financial Health Network, we recognize that systemic and historic barriers to economic opportunity and financial security have led to stark disparities in financial health outcomes among demographic groups. Achieving financial health for all requires dedication to closing these gaps. Through our strong commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), we help financial health organizations strategically approach, invest in, measure, and advance financial health for all within their own organizations.

We will sustain an environment in which all employees feel valued, respected, welcomed, and heard for their unique differences.

We align our talent practices with our DEI commitments.

We will ensure equitable talent practices and policies at all stages of the employee lifecycle, contributing to an environment in which all employees can thrive.

We will continue to broaden our external impact.

We will advise on and influence opportunities to improve financial health for all through our work and partnerships.

We will maintain a sustainable DEI foundation.

We will build and maintain the structure and support mechanisms to ensure sustained focus on and accountability for advancing our DEI aspirations.

The Gender Gap in Financial Health

The Financial Health Network’s research has consistently shown a sizable gap in the financial health of men and women. Moreover, recent data found that while financial health improved overall for the country during the pandemic, the gap between men and women actually widened.

Advancing Equity in Financial Health at Your Organization

Closing financial health inequities requires organizations to measure and disaggregate data of their constituents across key dimensions of identity, such as race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and ability. This allows organizations to better identify and understand gaps in financial health, supporting informed and intentional investments to decrease these inequities. At the Financial Health Network, we help providers and employers assess financial health inequities using our financial health scoring tools.
