On Tuesday, June 23, 2020, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors unanimously passed a resolution declaring “Racism a Public Health Crisis.” The Board authorized the County Administrative Office to form an element group within the Countywide Vision focused on equity.
“The Equity Element Group consists of influential and committed members of the Black community who are working together to improve our neighborhoods,” said San Bernardino County Fourth District Supervisor Curt Hagman. “We look forward to their recommendations to help us close gaps in services and opportunities for Black residents and people of color living and working in our county.”
According to Alexander, the San Bernardino County Equity Element Group is tasked with identifying racial disparities impacting our county’s residents and recommending campaigns and programs to address these issues. The group will also identify initiatives already underway within county government or the community that can be highlighted and supported.
