What We Know
The U.S. population is becoming increasingly diverse. Changes in the diversity of communities across the country have prompted a call-to-action for many service providers, as well as funders of support programs, to reduce disparities in the access and utilization of services (Lopéz, Hofer, Bumgarner, & Taylor, 2020). Equity
The effort to provide different levels of support based on an individual’s or group’s needs in order to achieve fairness in outcomes. Working to achieve equity acknowledges unequal starting places and the need to correct the imbalance. ( CSSP, 2019)
Equity is the equal opportunity for everyone to thrive. CBCAP State Lead Agency Note: The Children’s Bureau makes clear throughout the CBCAP Program Instruction that the program must ensure the meaningful participation of historically underserved and underrepresented groups.
