Racial Equity Dashboard

There is no single, simple way to measure racial equity. Instead, researchers and governments pull from a range of different data sources to identify ways in which people might experience racial equity gaps – using ‘indicators’. With this knowledge, the Mayor's Office of Racial Equity (ORE) and the Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) developed the District’s first Racial Equity Dashboard. The dashboard serves as a key supportive action in the District’s goal of eliminating racial and ethnic inequities, as articulated in the recently launched Districtwide Racial Equity Action Plan (REAP), primarily Goal 2.1: “Identify and measure long-standing racial equity indicators in partnership with other agencies, community-based organizations (CBOs), and District residents.” The Dashboard is a comprehensive, multi-page, online platform providing timely, relevant, and accessible data on 42 racial equity indicators across 7 dimensions of life in the District. This tool will allow the public and District government staff to learn more about racial equity in the District and track our progress towards eliminating racial and ethnic equity gaps and improving outcomes for all District residents. To keep the Dashboard meaningful and relevant, ORE cannot include every known, valid indicator of racial equity – in effect, those included in this Dashboard are subject to change based on ongoing stakeholder input and continued data availability.
