Assess scope or racial disparities (HMIS, Census Data) Assess whether program service connection and outcomes are equitable Solicit feedback from staff and those with lived experience about barriers and disparities Share finding with leaders, partners, & stakeholders to build system understanding
What current data points are most instructive? What other questions should we all be asking of our data to better understand access, service provision, and outcomes? Are we achieving equitable outcomes? What does the data tell us about who is entering our system? What training do we need to better understand these dynamics and make recommendations?
Are people experiencing results due to how policies are enforces or enacted? Do our policies address and meet the needs of people of color? How does implicit bias affect individuals’ outcomes? How can we address these dynamics?
CoC Training on understanding racism and intersection of racism and homelessness, so they can target resources and adapt programs for people of color Develop Pro-D opportunities to identify and invest in emerging leaders of color Create positions explicitly focused on and charged with creating equity-based response to homelessness.
