Resource: Guidance on Data and Race Equity
Tools for Understanding Race and Ethnicity Data
Built for Zero recognizes that the journey to fully integrate race equity into our data tools is ongoing. The questions in the Single Adults scorecard only touch the surface of the race equity work needed across the homeless response system. Tracking race and ethnicity data in your by-name data is a step in using your data for improvement to understand and address disparities. The Built for Zero (BFZ) Race Equity Framework and examples of how BFZ communities have made strides in race equity work are linked below as a starting point to support communities to embed race equity into their data efforts. These resources are designed to help strengthen data quality and ensure that data is used to identify and eliminate inequities and drive action in achieving equitable outcomes.
