Outcomes / Key Takeaways
  • Generate practical equity best-practice ideas for Community Education systems and programs.
  • Practice shared agreements that de-center whiteness and support accountable participation.
  • Identify bold, actionable strategies for advancing equity, inclusion, and belonging in public-sector spaces.
