About the Equity Assessment
Better Health Together is offering the Equity Assessment to partner organizations throughout Eastern Washington as a way to continue our shared work of advancing equity in our region. Better Health Together first administered the survey at the end of 2019, and shared regional and organizational-level results in early 2020. The 2022 assessment will go live Sept 12, 2022, with results shared in early 2023.
The assessment delves into many aspects of equity, including gender, race, disability, sexuality, language, and lived experience. In this assessment, respondents will be asked to share their observations about equity-related activities and perspectives. Your participation is an opportunity to demonstrate and grow your organization’s commitments to equity. Assessment results can be used as you apply for funding, engage in internal and external equity work, and promote a culture of learning and growth.
We encourage partner organizations to have as many staff as possible to complete the Equity Assessment when it is released. The assessment will be available in English, Spanish, and Russian. A translation of the introductory language will also be available in Marshallese (we are not able to offer a translation of the assessment at this time).
With BHT’s commitment to advancing equity and a strong emphasis on equity in Washington’s Medicaid Waiver renewal, we expect the Equity Assessment will inform future Waiver funding through BHT.
