Continuous Progress: Implementing Equity in Federal Programs

Monday, July 15, 1:30 to 3:00 p.m. MDT
Location: Interlocken A

Three years ago, a presidential initiative directed federal agencies to ensure that at least 40 percent of their investments in climate, sustainable housing, infrastructure, and similar efforts addressed inequity. Since then, many federal programs have worked to make sure services are easier to access and communicated more broadly. They have collected data that better captures community character and strived to identify gaps in offerings, address vulnerabilities, and enhance decision-making after disasters. Panelists will describe successes in incorporating equitable and just practices in their programs, as well as consider what needs to happen next.
