- De’Sean The highlighted areas are where we specifically have impact for our citizens/customers In implementing Equity and Social justice you build a set of goals around the 14 determinants Established in 2010 "Determinants of equity" means the social, economic, geographic, political and physical environment conditions in which people in our county are born, grow, live, work and age that lead to the creation of a fair and just society. Access to the determinants of equity is necessary to have equity for all people regardless of race, class, gender or language spoken. Defines ESJ foundational practices for the county to apply across all its actions to increase our influence on access to the determinants of equity: Raise visibility of ESJ Increase focus on upstream determinants of equity Consider ESJ impacts in all decision-making Promote fairness and opportunity in County government practices Collaborate across agencies Build community trust and capacity
