The Order directs "over 90 federal agencies across the federal government, including all Cabinet-level agencies as well as over 50 independent agencies" to conduct "equity assessments of 3-5 of their agency's high-impact services for the American people, to uncover where systemic barriers to access may exist."
Federal Agencies "developed Equity Action Plans for addressing-and achieving-equity in their mission delivery for all Americans. Equity Action Plans were required to include accountability mechanisms and to identify success metrics and key milestones toward progress."
"In releasing these action plans, as well as (the) snapshots of the largest agency's plans here, the Biden Administration" demonstrated its commitment "to deepening the conversation with communities, advocates, and all stakeholders on how we can partner with communities to deliver equitable outcomes."
The Biden Administration's Equity Action Plans represent a new, fundamental commitment to racial equity. This type of action has never been instituted by any previous Administration. The effort is dedicated to pursuing "a comprehensive approach to advancing equity for all, including people of color and others who have been historically underserved, marginalized, and adversely affected by persistent poverty and inequality." This book evaluates and provides detail on all Equity Action Plans released so far. After reading this book, you will have the know-how needed to understand the nature of this landmark effort.
The Federal Government can create opportunities for the improvement of communities that have been historically underserved, which benefits everyone.
