Program areas at Center for Economic Inclusion
Racial Equity Consulting Services for Employers & Government Agencies: We collaborate with employers to provide organizational consulting services in 5 Pillars of Racially Responsive Employer Action (People, Procurement, Policy, Philanthropy and Products) while measuring and improving organizational effectiveness nationally and throughout the region.
Education, Coaching and Awareness: We curate experiential learning events, trainings, and workshops designed to raise awareness, foster shared accountability, drive action, and build ambassadors for action. Our campaigns inform, equip and inspire employers and policymakers, for example, to invest in regional workforce development to: * Build racially inclusive, equitable and engaging workplaces * Leverage inclusive workplaces to increase productivity and market growth * Drive public policy change through lobbying and regional advocacy * Facilitate cross-racial, multi-sector partnerships for increased awareness, action, and accountability * Elevate the economic imperative of closing racial wealth gaps by investing in Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and Asian individuals, businesses, and communities.
Driving Shared Accountability for Data Informed Action: We elevate disaggregated data leveraging our Indicators for an Inclusive Regional Economy (TM) to produce dashboards, reports and publications elevating regional trends in inclusive economic growth and competitiveness, racial equity, and corporate action. Our researchers, analysts and consultants offer solutions to help leaders make data informed decisions that address the roots of systemic racism to close racial wealth gaps and stimulate inclusive economic growth.
