The age of good enough has come to an end, meaning equity, diversity and inclusion are quickly becoming the focus of most conversations at YouthZone. In recognition of Black History Month, we want to share some of our conscious efforts to build equity in our work. Our toolbox includes informative literature to guide discussions, client and staff input, and the professional guidance of anti-racist practitioner Jordan Curry Carter.
YouthZone knows that the fight for equity begins within ourselves, one person at a time, so we enlisted Jordan’s professional training. Jordan works with individuals and groups on racial equity knowledge, strategic guidance, and implementation. With Jordan’s help, everyone at YouthZone is learning to be more aware of ways to better understand and serve our community moving forward.
