Allocate $48,325 for racial equity training courses for city employees
$48,325
In Plain English
The city previously approved a 2-year contract with Race Forward for racial equity training but did not carry forward the $48,325 budget when the fiscal year changed. The money covers 4 upcoming 8-hour courses for employees and 3 courses already completed in October 2024. If approved, staff must report back on the overall Race Equity Program by March 2025.
