The Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland was one of eight organizations recognized by the Commission on Economic Inclusion, a program of the Greater Cleveland Partnership (GCP), at the GCP annual meeting on June 7, 2017.

The Best-in-Class award winners are selected based on the results of the Commission's annual Diversity and Inclusion Organization Assessment. The assessment is an online tool that collects data on the Commission's four main areas of focus—board, senior management, workforce and supplier diversity—and recognizes top performers in those areas.
