28 <br /> After receiving all the feedback from each jurisdiction, staff will incorporate the changes into the <br /> Plan as well as the feedback from the community stakeholders. <br /> Next Steps <br /> 1. Community Engagement - Over the summer, staff plans to conduct additional <br /> community engagement. The Racial Equity Plan Framework has been translated into <br /> Spanish, Chinese, Burmese and Karen. Staff will take the racial equity plan to <br /> communities of color and other communities groups to get their feedback on the plan. <br /> Staff will also reach out to both schools systems to see if they want to join in this <br /> process. The Department has also hired a social media consultant to provide <br /> information and get feedback from diverse groups of residents about the racial equity <br /> plan. <br /> 2. Training — <br /> a. Racial Equity Foundation Training - The Carrboro GARE Team has almost <br /> completed providing training to their employees on the Racial Equity Foundations <br /> Training and will be starting to provide this training to their Advisory Boards and <br /> Commissions. County employees have received DEI Training, while not the <br /> same as the Foundation training. Staff would like to bypass employees and begin <br /> training County Boards and Commissions on the Racial Equity Foundations <br /> Training. Staff believes that the next training employees may need is anti-bias <br /> training. <br /> b. Racial Equity Tool Kit - Staff would also like train a small group on the racial <br /> equity tools so efforts can begin to pilot the racial equity tool with a small group in <br /> each jurisdiction to see how it works in the field. <br /> 3. Subcommittees - The multijurisdictional subcommittees will continue working on their <br /> specific sections of the Plan during the summer. The intent is that all jurisdictions will <br /> work on these efforts as a team including. <br /> In the fall, staff will hold public hearing or a series of public hearings on the draft of the Final <br /> Plan prior to bringing the Racial Equity Plan to the elected officials. <br /> Annette Moore, Director of Human Rights and Relations, and Nancy Coston, Director of <br /> the Department of Social Services made the following PowerPoint presentation: <br /> Slide #1 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> NORTH CAROLINA <br /> One Orange Racial Equity Plan: <br /> A Framework for Moving Forward <br /> „ XE Rig s <br /> u.Xuman RIghN anE R-1nn <br /> Xa., .o2saws�kww SS,�Ci} _ <br /> tsd <br />
