The Equity Office logo and tagline
Good afternoon Equity Action Team,
 
We appreciate all who were able to join us last Friday for the meeting! I'm still working to pull everything together for a meeting follow-up, but we have some updates we needed to get out today.
Project Connect Feedback Needed
 

The Equity Office is seeking your input on the competencies and areas of work a contractor could help the City in the development of a Project Connect Equity Scorecard. This scorecard will work to guide the design and implementation for anti-displacement strategies related to these transit investments. We know that these are challenging times during the pandemic, so we truly appreciate your time and contributions.

 

Please complete the survey by January 28, 2021 and also please feel free to share this link with others that may want to provide their input. 
As we've been promoting in these emails and at the last meeting, the Reimagining Public Safety Task Force workgroups are now publicly posted and can be viewed here. We will need a lot of great folks in these conversations, as it is these groups will be forming policy recommendations and pilots that will infrom the work of the RPS Task Force, so check it out and get involved!
Budget Engagement Events
 
Over the past few years, the Equity Office has been partnering with the City's Joint Inclusion Commissions to host outreach and engagement with communities of color.
 
We need to know what your priorities are, what problems you are facing, and what will help you be safe, be healthy, and be economically stable.
 
The engagements will be held over Zoom, with Spanish and ASL interpretation. The dates are:
  • Tuesday, February 9th
  • Thursday, February 11th
  • Wednesday, February 17th
