Long Beach Equity Toolkit
New! The Long Beach Equity Toolkit includes an overview of what equity means and provides specific strategies that City leaders, staff, and partners can apply to our work to make positive changes through equitable policies, programs, and services. Each tool contains questions to answer when applying an equity lens, along with case studies that show what the City is doing to make Long Beach a healthy, safe, and thriving community for all.
