Frameworks / Diversity, equity & inclusion

A digital future.
For everyone.

Good technology starts with respect for people. At Frameworks, we believe everyone deserves dignity, a fair opportunity, and a place where their perspective matters.

Many perspectives. One shared future.

Diversity

Different backgrounds and lived experiences bring perspectives that help us ask better questions and build more thoughtful products.

Equity

Fair opportunity means recognizing barriers and working to remove them. Different people may need different support to participate.

Inclusion

Belonging grows when people are heard, respected, and able to contribute. It takes care in our everyday decisions.

Our commitment

Respect is the
starting point.

We want our workplace, partnerships, and digital products to make people feel valued. That means listening to different perspectives and considering who might be left out of a decision or experience.

Our commitment includes people of every race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, body type, and socioeconomic background.

We support personal autonomy, including the freedom to love, express your identity, and make decisions about your own body and health.

Understanding equality

Equal opportunity.
Meaningful support.

Equality means fair treatment and a genuine chance to participate, regardless of someone’s background or personal characteristics. Race, gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, and financial circumstances should not determine whose voice is heard.

Equity asks us to look at the barriers behind that opportunity. Access to the same resource is not always enough; someone may need a different format, an accommodation, or additional support to participate fully.

We want the experiences we create to help people move forward, with respect for the different places they start.

You have rights

Your body. Your identity.
Your own path.

The freedom to be you

We believe in
personal autonomy.

We believe in personal autonomy and the dignity of making decisions about your own life. Our support includes same-sex marriage, gender transition, and reproductive choices, including abortion.

These are part of our company’s values: respect for who you are, who you love, and the decisions you make about your body and health. You deserve to be treated with care and dignity.

How we put it into practice

Design with access in mind.

We work toward clearer language, usable navigation, keyboard access, and readable interfaces. Accessibility is part of the work, and we welcome feedback about barriers.

Make room for different voices.

We value different experiences in the people we work with and the customers we serve. We aim to make collaboration respectful and participation meaningful.

Keep listening. Keep improving.

Inclusion is an ongoing responsibility. We take concerns seriously and use feedback to improve how we work and what we build.

Ten principles. One shared purpose.

Our values. Our responsibility.

A values-based
employer.

At Frameworks, being a values-based employer means caring about how we work as much as what we create. Respect, fairness, thoughtful work, and accountability are the standards we commit to bringing into our decisions and relationships.

Those standards guide our contractor relationships today and the employee team we aim to build. Different perspectives belong here. Shared responsibility is how we move forward.

01 / Respect

Care in every interaction.

Listen before making assumptions. Communicate with kindness, respect personal boundaries, and treat people’s time and contributions as valuable.

02 / Fairness

Opportunity with dignity.

Consider people for their skills and contributions. Make expectations clear, welcome different experiences, and take accessibility needs seriously.

03 / Thoughtful work

Quality with a purpose.

Start with real needs. Build useful, accessible experiences, share what we learn, and improve the work through honest, constructive feedback.

04 / Accountability

Own the impact.

Follow through on commitments, acknowledge mistakes, and address concerns with care. We expect those leading the work to model these standards and welcome good-faith feedback without retaliation.

Our standard / Zero discrimination

No place for
discrimination.

Frameworks does not tolerate discrimination, harassment, or retaliation in our workplace or professional relationships. This commitment applies to how we work with employees, contractors, clients, and partners.

This includes prejudice based on race, ethnicity, origin, sex, gender identity, medical decisions, body type, or physical or communication disabilities. Our standard applies to hiring, day-to-day collaboration, and professional interactions. We take reports seriously and are committed to reviewing concerns and taking appropriate corrective action, which may include ending employment or a business relationship, consistent with applicable law and agreements.

People should be able to raise a concern in good faith without retaliation. If you encounter an accessibility barrier or need an accommodation when interacting with Frameworks, please let us know.

Opportunity built on merit

Your contribution.
Your opportunity.

Frameworks Holding LLC is a merit-based firm. We employ people based on the skills, ideas, and value they bring to the work—and their ability to contribute to what we build together.

Frameworks Holding LLC is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to fair consideration of qualified applicants, without discrimination based on characteristics protected by applicable law.

We believe recognizing individual merit and providing fair access to opportunity go hand in hand.

Advancing equity / Every day

Inclusion is
a practice.
Never an
afterthought.

It takes ongoing attention to who is represented, who can participate, and whose experience could be better.

An ongoing commitment, not a finished task.
What that asks of us
  1. Make room.

    Invite different perspectives. Consider whose voice is missing and what could make participation easier.

  2. Keep learning.

    Listen with care, ask better questions, and stay open to experiences beyond our own.

  3. Follow through.

    Turn what we learn into thoughtful changes and hold ourselves accountable for how we work.

A word from our CEOListen. Speak. Act.

At Frameworks,
we believe
silence speaks
volumes.

Corbin Vanarsdall CEO, The Frameworks Company

When we stay silent, things can stay the same. Speaking up can be the first step toward something better.

We also know that listening matters. Sometimes, making space, respecting boundaries, or protecting someone’s safety calls for quiet. Not everyone has the same freedom to speak.

Here in the United States, we value freedom of speech and the responsibility to use our voices with care. At Frameworks, we choose to speak up, listen closely, and act on what we learn—so we can keep building a more thoughtful world with you.

Your voice matters
People at the heart of it

Your voice
matters.

Being heard and feeling supported belong together. Raise a concern, or find support for your well-being.

01 / Start a conversation

We’re here to listen.

Tell us what happened, what could be better, or what you need to feel included.

This opens our existing general contact form. Share only what you’re comfortable including; it is not an anonymous reporting service or an emergency support line.

02 / Mental health resources

Support for wherever you are.

Find resources for urgent moments, ongoing care, and everyday challenges. You don’t have to find your way alone.

A starting point for finding the right help—for yourself or someone you care about.
