Diversity & Inclusion
Diversity and Inclusion at Fannie Mae
At Fannie Mae, we welcome employees of all backgrounds and create an environment for their success. We embrace a fearless, lean-in, active approach to diversity and inclusion (D&I). Our leadership and employees reflect the diversity of the communities we serve.
We host Courageous Conversations. We stand up against unjust housing practices. We’re building a foundation of cultural fluency with tools and resources for everyday use. These policies and practices are a source of strength and competitiveness, reflect our core values and our mission, and have helped make us an industry leader in D&I.
