Quick Resource for Inclusive Images

Two friends standing and talking

Hopefully, you’ve heard the phrase “representation matters”. Seeing yourself somewhere means something. Using inclusive images is a small change your organization can make that will make a big difference. A person is far more likely to do something if they see people like them doing it too (besides jumping off a cliff). 

Here are some free and paid options for you to use to make your branding more diverse. Switching out stock photos and illustrations is a simple change that can make a huge difference.
