Gender, racial and other equity assessments.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to gender, racial and other equity assessments

This bill would require certain agencies to complete gender, racial, sexual orientation and income assessments of their services and programs, employment practices, contracting practices, and budgeting, and to create action plans to address the findings of these assessments. The bill would require that certain city agencies report by July 1, 2019 and annually thereafter, on efforts undertaken to implement action plans. The bill would also create an equity committee to advise the relevant agencies and to review annual reports.
