Equity Minded
Equity-Minded is a perspective or lens underpinning the operations of the organization that centers on recognizing and redressing systems of oppression in its policies, practices, and actions. This underpinning includes self-reflection, examining and prioritizing who is/has been most directly impacted, and interrogating the status quo to ensure equity is at the forefront of the work.

We demonstrate equity-mindedness by:
Fostering a culture that enables the people within the organization to continuously grow and improve equity efforts on a personal, professional, and collective level as first-generation equity professionals
Modeling equity-minded practices and keeping equity at the forefront of its operations and work and calling out inequities (i.e., leading by example)
Documenting and developing resources (e.g., playbook, checklists) that can be shared more broadly within and outside of the organization to promote knowledge-building and sharing of equity-minded language, practices, and considerations
When possible, we provide a preview of the resource, but please note that some resources do not allow a preview.
