Outline Social Equity Defined Key Indicators Initiatives Resources Box / Eikenberry Dimensions – (ADPQO) −Access / Distribution −Process −Quality −Outcomes

Social Equity -- Defined Social equity is the fair, just and equitable management of all institutions serving the public directly or by contract. This includes the fair, just and equitable distribution of public service and the implementation of public policy and the commitment to promote fairness, justice, and equity in the formation of public policy. (Sounding the Call, p. 1)
4
Social Equity Indicator Areas Access / Distribution -- a commitment to reduce omission and neglect that contribute to systematic inequality in access to services. Procedural Fairness – a determination to eliminate acts of commission that deprive individuals of fair and consistent treatment and to act with urgency when members of groups are systematically treated unfairly.
5
Indicator Areas (continued) Quality – ensures that those who receive services and benefits are not slighted and consigned to a level of quality that does not measure up to acceptable standards Outcomes – rejects systematic differences in life chances across groups in society – promotes the idea of narrowing and eliminating disparities
