Collaborative Equity Audit
Identify a Pathway to Improving Equity with Community Stakeholders
Overview
Our Collaborative Equity Audit is a focused approach for educational organizations to understand current student outcomes and identify where to focus improvements to impact equitable outcomes for each and every student.
The process engages diverse perspectives from across the whole community, including family members, teachers, partners, and students themselves. Using a research-based framework, this group analyzes data together to identify key areas of need. They also suggest improvements focused on these areas of need to ensure the organization serves each and every student.
The equity audit can be both a starting point to set direction or a progress-monitoring tool to review current practices and goals. The resulting recommendations are practical, actionable, and designed to increase equitable outcomes for students.
