New York City has started its first-ever, citywide racial equity planning process to address racial inequities. As a part of this process, the NYC Mayor's Office for Equity and Racial Justice (MOERJ) will work across city agencies to set goals, track progress, and make continuous improvements to eliminate racial disparities and promote fairness for all residents.
City agencies have been trained by MOERJ and are beginning work on their agency's racial equity plan this summer. MOERJ is providing direct support and guidance to agencies throughout the planning process to ensure the production of strong plans.
