Oakland County is committed to the goal of operationalizing equity by taking actions to integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion within our county operations. As a government organization with a commitment to public service and influence on public decision-making, Oakland County has a responsibility to identify, challenge and change systems that perpetuate injustices and create disparate outcomes for marginalized and disadvantaged individuals and communities.

We are continuously taking actions to integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion into all county operations as well as setting measurements to identify progress or areas of opportunity.

We will hold ourselves accountable to this commitment through continuous education around structural and systemic inequities and intentional incorporation of equity and inclusion in all policies, practices, and programs.
