Violet Benchmarks are the first standardization of inclusive care for diverse communities.
BIPOC
Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.
LGBQ
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Queer communities.
TGNC
Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming communities.
We standardized inclusive care because there's demand. By 2045, half of all Americans will have at least one or more diverse identities, including race, sexual orientation, gender identity, and more.

But, health disparities continue to affect BIPOC, LGBQ, and TGNC communities.
In 2020, racial health disparities alone led to 3.5 million life years lost.
Black and Indigenous women are 2 to 3 times more likely to die from complications of pregnancy and childbirth than white women.
Transgender patients are 10% less likely to get routine check ups, and 29% of transgender patients were even refused to be seen by their providers.
Latine/x populations have the highest uninsured rates amongst any racial group, sitting at 20% uninsured in 2019.
Now is the time to start delivering inclusive care.
We believe that a provider's cultural competence is essential for delivering the right care—especially for historically underserved communities. Culturally competent care means that providers can factor in identity considerations during patient interactions with empathy and respect.
That’s why we’ve created the first-ever standardization and infrastructure for inclusive care. By offering data-driven interventions, from benchmarking providers’ cultural competence to upskilling via personalized educational pathways, we’re making it easier than ever for patients to find the right providers.
