We will invite not only Hillsborough, who is not in the <br /> GARE cohort but is a member of GARE, but also other regional partners to participate. <br /> The combined GARE Team will form committees to concentrate on various aspects of the Racial <br /> Equity Plan. The committees will focus on the Racial Equity Tool, Community Engagement, Data <br /> Collection and Analysis, Training, and Communication, Evaluation, and Accountability. In <br /> addition, teams will continue with their own jurisdictions demonstration projects begun <br /> through the Learning Community program. In November or December, a symposium will be <br /> held for elected officials and other interested persons highlighting the work of the GARE local <br /> and regional teams. <br /> The Combined local GARE Teams will use GARE's six proven strategies described below in <br /> advancing racial equity and government transformation to create a shared equity framework to <br /> develop a Racial Equity Plan. <br /> 1.

Use data to develop strategies to close gaps and <br /> track progress over a period. Metrics can also be used to align outputs with outcomes <br /> across cross-departmental and cross-jurisdictional lines to evaluate community <br /> progress on racial equity throughout the County. <br /> 4. Develop Community Engagement Plans. Partner with other institutions and <br /> communities to partner in this work together. Partner with Stakeholders, including <br /> communities of color, to have a "collective impact" to advance racial equity. Collective <br /> impact refers to when a group of organizations from different sectors work on a <br /> common issue to solve a specific social problem. <br /> 5.
