+### Model Card for MBIAS
+
+#### Model Details
+**Model Name:** MBIAS  
+**Model Type:** Large Language Model (LLM)  
+**Version:** 1.0  
+**Developer:** Ananya Raval, Veronica Chatrath, Shaina Raza  
+**Model Repository:** [HuggingFace MBIAS](https://huggingface.co/newsmediabias/MBIAS)
+
+#### Model Description
+MBIAS is a fine-tuned Large Language Model specifically designed to enhance safety while retaining contextual accuracy in model outputs. Traditional safety interventions often compromise contextual meaning when mitigating bias and toxicity. MBIAS addresses this by maintaining high contextual relevance and drastically reducing bias and toxicity in text generation.
+
+#### Intended Use
+The model is intended for research and development purposes, particularly in applications where reducing bias and toxicity in language generation is crucial without sacrificing the retention of key information.
+
+#### Training Data
+The model was fine-tuned on a custom dataset curated for comprehensive safety interventions. This dataset includes diverse text samples aiming to cover a wide range of demographics to effectively test and reduce bias and toxicity.
+
+#### Evaluation
+MBIAS has demonstrated a significant reduction in bias and toxicity, with over 30% reduction overall and exceeding 90% in specific demographic analysis on an out-of-distribution test set. Performance metrics include bias reduction, toxicity reduction, and retention of key information (KR).
+
+## Performance Metrics
