Chicago CoC Equity Action Plan & Impact Implementation
Services:
Coaching | Facilitation | Implementation Strategy | Tool & Resource Design
Description:
HJC worked with All Chicago and in partnership with CoC Impact Team (a workgroup of the Continuum of Care) to facilitate the co-design and implementation of a Racial Equity Action Plan based on the findings of a landscape analysis provided by Arc4 Justice.
The action plan provided an accountability structure for moving the work forward, including definition and consensus on goals and metrics, timelines and benchmarks; identification of key decision makers within the CoC; assessment of tools and resources needed; anticipating and troubleshooting bottlenecks and blindspots to build trust and transparency across teams.
HJC also worked with All Chicago to implement priority strategies identified in the action plan, including co-designing tools and resources, facilitation, and coaching.
Housing Justice Collective has partnered with our community to advance more equitable and just practices within the Chicago Homeless Response System.
Through their coaching, our community team examines the homeless response system with greater curiosity and accountability, identifying areas for improvement and pursuing necessary structural changes.
This work has challenged us and propelled us toward real change—not merely good intentions. HJC consistently encourages growth, grounding their approach in a shared commitment to making this work not only impactful, but irresistible.
