Impact, every day

At ICF, we believe impact is not defined by a handful of big moments. It is shaped by the choices we make every day in how we operate, how we work together, and how we deliver for our clients. Whether we are developing our people, applying new technologies, managing resources sustainably, or strengthening our accountability, our focus is the same: Do exceptional work and do it in a way that creates lasting value. Our approach to corporate citizenship focuses on issues that matter to our people, stakeholders, and operations and that shapes our strategy, targets, and reporting.

In our latest corporate citizenship report, we share:

  • How our employees are supported—both inside and outside of the office—to ensure their work is meaningful and fulfilling.
  • What we’ve accomplished toward reducing our environmental footprint, including how we continue to achieve our emissions targets.
  • Why it’s our purpose to positively transform communities around the world—through our work and by giving back.

Investing in our people

We empower our employees to belong, grow, and thrive so they can bring our purpose to life. Our latest report reflects how that energy is woven into the fabric of our operations, processes, and programs. We encourage team members to connect, build community, and learn from each other’s unique perspectives. And we offer flexible programs and resources to support our employees’ unique needs and well-being.

Reducing our impact on the planet

As we help our clients save energy and reduce GHG emissions, we’re also refining our own operations to improve efficiency and reduce our environmental impact—through 2025 and beyond. We are setting science-based targets, optimizing our resources, adapting to evolving regulations, and strengthening our long-term strategy.

Growing responsibly

Supporting our communities

At ICF, giving back is part of who we are. Our people are at the heart of our impact, supporting the causes and communities they care about most with ICF’s support. In 2025, ICF and our employees donated $1.7 million to charities worldwide, with World Central Kitchen, Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), and the American Red Cross among the organizations receiving the greatest support.

Our work requires integrity, making our governance framework critical to our long-standing reputation as a trustworthy organization. View our code of conduct.
