Equity Statement
As part of our continued work to center equity in our programming, investments, and advocacy, in 2022-23 we engaged in a participatory agencywide learning and development process to update our equity statement to encompass our current work, intentions for continuous learning and improvement, and commitment to accountability.
I am excited to collaborate closely with communities and stakeholders to build an early childhood system that works towards transcending boundaries, eliminating disparities, and improving the conditions for children and their families in Alameda County.
