Starting on March 2, Austin Voices will be launching a community-based “Campaign for Equity” that will run from March through May. The goal is to specifically answer the question, “Do our campuses and communities have what they need to educate all children?” Partner organizations, including Child Inc., River City Youth Foundation, the Harvest Foundation and local community and faith groups have signed up to help survey campuses and communities across the “Crescent of Opportunity” stretching from north to south Austin. Activities include campus and community surveys, virtual town hall meetings, an Equity Bus Tour on March 27 and a citywide Youth Equity Summit on March 28, along with Kids Fest and annual Unity Walk on Saturday, April 25. Results of the Equity Campaign will be presented to city, county and school district leaders in May.
