Equity Assessment Tool

An Equity Assessment Tool is a structured process that helps organizations evaluate how well their policies, programs, or services promote fairness and inclusion. It identifies whether different groups—such as based on race, income, or ability—are being treated equitably and if disparities exist. By highlighting potential gaps, the tool guides decision-makers to make more just and inclusive choices, ensuring resources and opportunities are accessible to all. In essence, it's a practical way to assess and improve fairness and equity within an organization or community.
