Indianapolis Racial Equity Report Card
SAVI Talks - October 27, 2022On October 27, the SAVI Talks event will focus on the project, Indianapolis Racial Equity Report Card.
This event will be a bit different from others in that we want a community conversation about the outcomes that are important to measure as Indy holds itself accountable to creating a racially just and more equitable community.
Racial disparities define daily life in Indianapolis, with racial segregation creating huge differences in life expectancy between neighboring communities.
EVENT SOLD OUT!
Our November 17 Data & Drafts program from 6-7:30 p.m. will be another opportunity to gather more information about important outcomes to measure for this project. Register for Data & Drafts https://www.wfyi.org/events/data-and-drafts-racial-equity-report-card.
The project process moving forward includes additional community forums to gather information, broad community feedback on initial drafts, and a final report published in May 2023. The report will be updated annually thereafter.
