Mayor's Office of Racial Equity

Five years. One mission. Celebrating five years of the Mayor’s Office of Racial Equity. Under the leadership of Mayor Muriel Bowser, the Mayor’s Office of Racial Equity was established to advance fairness and accountability across DC government. The Office also carries forward the REACH Act by embedding racial equity into how policies are designed, budgets are developed, and decisions are made across the District. From the District’s first Racial Equity Action Plan to pay equity advancements, expanded language access, and environmental justice milestones, this work continues to strengthen outcomes for DC residents. #DCRacialEquity #DCGov #EquityInAction ▶️ Watch the video to learn more.
