Organizing Your Sustainability Team with the Town of New Milford

Equity Coaching and Old Lyme's Approach to Equity

Community equity surveys are powerful tools for engaging all of our towns community members. These surveys can help us to see where we are and what we need. Then, put specific plans in action to support those needs. But the quality of the data you receive is only as good as the quality of the questions your survey asks.

This two-part, virtual workshop series will provide practical strategies for creating valid survey questions that are aligned with equity principles with a special focus on communities. We will also discuss how to disaggregate data, and communicate your findings.

Attendees should have a basic understanding of equity concepts. Attendance at both sessions is required.

Session 1 (April 8th): Methods and Strength Based approaches: Aligning research with Equity Principals Collection Design: What can we Analyze?

Session 2 (April 15th): Discovery & Themes: Choosing What you want/need to talk about. Now what? Communicating Findings
