Belonging at Modern Health

Our vision for DEIB
We believe every workplace should foster an intentional and compassionate environment where everyone can be the most authentic version of themselves. We call this Modern Belonging, and it’s crucial for employee well-being, productivity, and retention in the modern workplace.
That's why here at Modern Health, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging are at the forefront of our efforts to help individuals succeed in both their personal and professional lives. By prioritizing community, education, and accountability, we are creating the foundation for an equitable environment where everyone can thrive.
Transforming beliefs into actions
Inclusion is a shared responsibility, so we equip our employees and providers with the tools to help each other succeed. Our team participates in regular trainings with DEIB leaders on topics such as allyship, anti-racism, and unconscious bias. These educational opportunities are critical to our vision of creating lasting change, because when everyone has the opportunity to unlearn and relearn together as a community, we are empowered to hold one another accountable.
Designing for meaningful dialogue
Cognizant of the history and legacy of discrimination against BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, we have been working to provide space for those who have been underserved with mental health support.
Along with their allies, employees of various cultural identities have created Employee Resource Groups. These groups are a community effort that provide brave spaces for processing and planning.
In June 2020, we launched a series of online Healing Circles to provide space for grief, healing, and joy among Black communities and to bolster anti-racism efforts among allies. These Circles have grown to support multiple communities.
