Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Health’s mission is to bring fact-based health and wellness information to all people regardless of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, religion, culture, body type, and ability. We create content that reflects the variety of backgrounds and experiences of our audience, especially when it comes to groups that have historically been marginalized in the health space. We believe that the diversity of our writers, editors, medical experts, producers, and photographers makes our coverage more accessible and empathetic.
