Since its inception, the office has developed the first phase of a citywide racial equity framework, focusing on equity in the city’s internal operations. The next phase will focus on ensuring equity in how the city provides services outside the walls of City Hall.
Work will now begin to hire a new director for the office, according to Sheryl Davis, executive director of the Human Rights Commission, which oversees the Office of Racial Equity. But Davis pointed to the bureaucratic complexities of filling the position while fixing its classification. Two of the office's four positions are vacant, one of which has never been filled, according to the Department of Human Resources. Still, Davis described the office as"the little engine that could" and lauded the two employees that remain for continuing the office’s mission.
