What is Equity Planning?

This session will frame and start our day of discussing building equitable neighborhoods and addressing inequity in our local communities. Join us for a conversation on what equity planning is, how we can address equity planning from a disciplinary perspective, as well as how to use the many resources for equity in Baltimore. We’ll be going over topics like Baltimore’s equity academy, ordinances, and neighborhood planning groups, all to address how each of us can take action to develop better equitable communities in Baltimore.
