Our goal is simple—we ask organizations to commit to interview and consider at least one qualified woman and person of color for every open role, VP and higher, including the C-Suite and the Board. That’s it. No quotas. No deadlines.
By race, white members in the C-Suite grew by 22% while POC grew by 72%. 3.3x’s the rate of growth.

The Parity Model™
The roadmap to gender and racial parity in your company.
The Parity Model is a framework for companies to see the DEI best practices of hundreds of Parity.org's corporate partners, large and small, and apply them where they make sense in their own organization. See how your company stacks up!
The ParityINDEX® is a private score and dashboard of gender and racial parity within an organization. It is the new KPI to measure the health of a company’s diversity program and benchmark it against others in their sector.
Parity.org Best Companies for Women to Advance™ List recognizes organizations that have benefits, policies, and programs that are particularly beneficial for women to advance in the workplace. These companies have built a foundation to reduce obstacles to women’s advancement and promote a work environment where women are valued and can succeed.
Parity.org® launched with a mission to create equal representation at the top with the ParityPledge® in Support of women and, in 2020 added a ParityPledge in Support of People of Color in response to the racial unrest in the country.
