Equity refers to the impartial distribution of resources, opportunities, and privileges in society. It is important because it ensures that everyone has an equal chance to thrive and reach their full potential, regardless of their background or circumstances.

At the Macon-Bibb Equity Hub, we define equity as the active pursuit of creating equal opportunities and removing systemic barriers that hinder individuals from reaching their full potential with integrity. We approach equity through data-driven insights, educational resources, and community engagement, working towards creating a more just and inclusive community.
