Designing and implementing policies to close the racial wealth gap
For policy to be effective in achieving desired goals, close attention must be paid to decisions made during the design and implementation stages. But how do we ensure that public policies are designed and implemented in a way to ensure that all Americans have the opportunity to achieve economic security? This panel will explore policy design and implementation strategies that can help to meet the economic needs of communities of color.
