NMHC Diversity Equity & Inclusion Toolkit

Nearly 40 million Americans are building their lives in apartment homes. The apartment industry recognizes the value of building a workforce that reflects the diversity of the residents we serve and the communities where we operate. Cultivating an organizational culture that prioritizes diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is a strategic imperative for innovation and success. NMHC members have asked for resources to support their DEI goals, and, in response, NMHC offers this member-informed toolkit to meet apartment firms where they are. 

TOOLKIT OVERVIEW

  • The 5-stage process for embedding DEI in organizational culture.

A modular approach allows firms to access resources based on where they are on the DEI continuum for each practice area covered:
