Through a series of meetings and collaborative conversations the past two years have included a new journey to gather and engage local educators and community members on a quest to promote equity of outcomes and experiences across contexts. This is an ongoing process that has been characterized by a desire to institutionalize practices that promote equity. We have gathered momentum to invite action and action steps. We began our discussions looking broadly at the goal of equity and communicating the experiences evident in our frames of reference. These frames of reference include urban, rural, and suburban schools and school districts, classrooms, community agencies, homes and workplaces throughout the Capital Region of New York.
Everyone is welcome and many have offered their expertise, perspectives vulnerability and passion to make a difference for members of our communities who have been marginalized on the basis of a variety of socio-cultural factors including race, ethnicity, ability, gender, sexual orientation, and socio-economic status. We continue to build and broaden our efforts and invite others to join our cause and focus on providing spaces for the voices of all members of our communities to be heard, seen, and encouraged to prosper. In that spirit, the Capital Region Equity For Action Collaborative, a grassroots collective of stakeholders to which you too are invited, are launching the Capital Region Initiative enSuring Equity for Action to include an Equity Pledge. #ACTionforEquity518#CapRegionActionforEquity#518ActforEquity #518RISE4Action We invite you to take, share, and promote this pledge as a community commitment to going beyond conversation and taking action for equity. The Action for Equity Pledge

This is such an amazing initiative. And one that is needed beyond the regular ethical parameters we have in our staff handbooks.
