Newrez Receives PRISM Award in Recognition of Work for LGBTQ+ Employees

FORT WASHINGTON, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Newrez LLC (“Newrez,” “the company”), a leading national mortgage lender and servicer proudly announced they’ve won National Mortgage Professional’s (NMP) PRISM Award for 2024. This achievement is a significant milestone for the company who is only one of three mortgage lenders to receive this award.

National Mortgage Professional awards the PRISM Award to lenders “…for their commitment to diversity and inclusion in an industry where 8% of brokers identify as LGBTQ+.” according to a September 2022 report by Zippia^®, an online recruitment service. Newrez was specifically recognized by NMP for their significant and wide-ranging support for LGBTQ+ employees-- from life-changing health benefit coverage to an active employee resource group (ERG).

Jane Hughes, Director of Community Investment at Newrez said, “Support for the LGBTQ+ community expands beyond any single person, program, or campaign at Newrez. Our Community Investment team may lead many of the programs that were cited in our recent PRISM award win, but it's the dedication, action, and commitment of so many of our employees who made it happen.”

Newrez is proud of its track record, including philanthropic contributions and empowering their workforce through education and resources, which set the standard for inclusion and equality within the mortgage industry. Wherever possible, the mortgage lender/servicer shares opportunities for employees to volunteer in the community, including at local Pride parades where the company has a presence.
