Our Story
The Equality Indicators is a comprehensive tool developed by the CUNY Institute for State and Local Governance (ISLG) that helps cities understand and measure equality or equity in their city. It works across multiple areas (e.g., education, housing, justice) and measures the disparities faced by disadvantaged groups (those most vulnerable to inequality, such as racial and ethnic minorities, immigrants, or individuals living in poverty) across those domains on an annual basis, tracking change over time. Equality Indicators tools can be used as frameworks to support policy development, demonstrating the effectiveness of current policies and initiatives, and highlighting areas where new policies and initiatives may be needed. By making data publicly available, they increase transparency and accountability, allowing the local community an inside view into the disparities in their city and where progress is—and is not—being made.
Currently, Equality or Equity Indicators tools have been developed in six cities: Dallas, TX; New York, NY; Oakland, CA; Pittsburgh, PA; St. Louis, MO; and Tulsa, OK.
