Phase 3.3

Mobilize Org-Wide: High

Organization has an established commitment, shared vision, and goals for operationalizing racial equity, diversity and inclusion across the entire organization. Racial equity, diversity, and inclusion is a clear priority for this organization and relevant mechanisms are in place to consistently assess how racial equity shows up throughout the entire organization. The organization is collecting and analyzing data and consistently audits their progress on their goals. All team members, including leadership, are held accountable to personally developing their capacity for racial equity, diversity and inclusion work and in operationalizing the organization’s stated commitment to this work in their programs and processes. Current leaders are driving equity throughout their teams and services and getting results, but not all of the ways that they are doing so are codified. In order to be successful in this phase, the Equity Work Plan must be finalized. Additionally, consistent funding must be budgeted and secured for the organization’s named racial equity, diversity and inclusion priorities. Lastly, once the Equity Work Plan is finalized, the plan must be communicated to the organization/school community.

In this phase, the racial equity team should focus on:

  1. Institutionalizing disaggregated data analysis across all functions in the organization to finalize the Equity Work Plan..
  2. Securing consistent funding for racial equity, diversity and inclusion priorities.
  3. Communicating the Equity Work Plan to internal and external stakeholders.
  • Step 1:
    Institutionalize disaggregated data analysis across all functions in the organization to finalize your Equity Work Plan (strategic plan to inform DEI progress).
  • Step 2:
    Consistent funding is put towards this work, and a recurring budget line item is dedicated to racial equity, diversity & inclusion priorities.
