The Equity Imperative began in March of 2018 in response to the persistent underperformance of culturally and linguistically diverse students across the country. Our work started mostly with schools and school districts, but has since expanded to reach other entities who desire to drive equitable outcomes through their service provision to diverse populations. As our work began to spread from one state, to multiple, we witnessed how the reality of racism manifested in similar ways across different geographical regions. This recognition has fueled our sense of urgency and hope in supporting organizations to become the sanctuary sites for equity that people need and deserve.
