People

We create spaces where everyone belongs so we can all thrive together.

Making Authenticity Accessible for All

Our Evolvers are whole selves, not just employees. They’re parents. Caregivers. People of color. Members of the LGBTQIA+ community. People with disabilities and neurodiversities. Locals from coast to coast. We believe our work and culture should represent every identity and intersectionality that makes them them.

That’s why we grow Evolve’s diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) efforts in a way that actively creates a trusted space for people to be their most authentic selves every day.

How Our Culture Is Built

Diversity is opening a home to all people

Recognizing the full range of human differences, backgrounds, and experiences, we continuously work to have all identities present and represented.

Inclusion is inviting them all inside

We encourage and create space for everyone to share their experiences, voices, and ideas so they feel heard and included.

Equity is giving them everything they need

We know our differences put us at uneven starting points, and we meet people where they are so everyone is in the best possible position to succeed.

Belonging is when they all feel at home

We want all who work with us to feel the security, stability, and support that comes with authentic belonging.

How We’re Growing Our Impact

Evolver Resource Groups (ERGs)

We organize dedicated spaces where Evolvers who share similar experiences can find comfort, form connections, and discuss professional growth. We currently have ERGs for:

LGBTQIA+
Parents and caregivers
Mental health support
And more

Events & Workshops

➔

We help expand DEIB knowledge for our teammates by organizing speaker events, hosting inclusion-focused workshops, and attending local DEIB events.

DEIB at Our Properties

There’s no room for intolerance in Evolve homes. We enforce inclusive behavior policies to make sure all feel welcome, and we expect the same from everyone we work with.

CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion

➔

In partnership with our leadership team, ERGs, and other teammates, our CEO joined the largest CEO-led commitment to advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace.

Communicate Often, Honestly, and Directly

➔

As one of our core company values, we regularly ask for teammate feedback through annual surveys, focus groups, and more.

From People to Planet and Beyond

DEIB at Evolve is only one part of our wider social responsibility initiatives. Focused on community, people, and planet, we commit to extending hospitality and care to all people in all places.
