Equity Advisory Committee launched

PSRC's Equity Advisory Committee(External link) had its first meeting on November 4. The new 19-member committee is a working group composed of residents as well as governmental and community-based organizations in the Puget Sound region representing Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) communities and other marginalized groups.

The Equity Advisory Committee will collaborate with PSRC staff and elected officials across the region to remove barriers and leverage the full brilliance of BIPOC communities, improving the innovation, resilience, and success of the region.

The committee will guide development of the Regional Equity Strategy(External link), which will include data and best practices that PSRC and its member jurisdictions can use to incorporate racial equity more effectively in plans and policies for the central Puget Sound region.
