Equity isn't a policy on a shelf. It's how the city works. The Office of Equity and Belonging partners with every department at the City of Boulder to build the skills, tools, and structures that put equity into daily practice, from how we hire and buy to how we plan and engage the public.
Historically, city services, opportunities, and decision-making have not served everyone in our community equally. The Office of Equity and Belonging works across the organization to address the systems and practices that contribute to those inequities and help create more fair, inclusive and responsive government.
