Cambridge Associates Earns Equality 100 Award Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 2026 Corporate Equality Index
Cambridge Associates is proud to announce that our commitment to LGBTQ+ equality and inclusion has been recognized for another year by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. We have received a score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation’s 2026 Corporate Equality Index, the nation’s foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion. We’re honored to be one of the 534 U.S. businesses receiving HRCF’s Equality 100 Award as Leaders in LGBTQ+ Workplace Inclusion.
The results of the 2026 CEI showcase how U.S.-based companies are promoting LGBTQ+ friendly workplace policies in the U.S. and abroad:
- 98% of CEI-rated companies include sexual orientation and gender identity in their non-discrimination policies
- 92% of companies provide equivalent family formation benefits for spouses and partners, including adoption, fertility and surrogacy.
- 87% of companies provide comprehensive healthcare coverage for all employees, including transgender employees, for medically necessary care.
The CEI rates employers providing these crucial protections to more than 22 million U.S. workers on four central criteria:
- Non-discrimination policies across business entities;
- Equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families;
- Supporting an inclusive culture; and,
- Outreach and engagement.
