CRAFTING YOUR EQUITY LENS
Develop an introspective tool that helps you see what needs to be done to build the world your envision with those around you.
What is an Equity Lens?
An Equity Lens is your own personal mission statement. This statement has your vision of the world that you want for not only yourself, but for seven generations to come. Your Equity Lens is a tool that helps you see what needs to be done to build that world with those around you. The words you put in your lens will help guide the crafting of a community that hasn’t yet come to fruition, and with your Equity Lens it stands to become more substantial in our time.

“Matthew is fantastic and he will change the way you think and change the way your whole organization works with students and works with communities. He helps build belonging and he does it in such an enjoyable way.”
“[The training] comes from a really personal place and in the way that it is done, it gives a person a way to internalize it before it focuses on outward actions and outward expressions. This focus and this work has given us a new way of interacting with each other within the company! It gives us a way to engage each other outside of our traditional lanes.”
