SLO Equity Podcast
SLO Equity is a podcast that dives into the origins of systemic racism, and unconscious bias in San Luis Obispo County. It tells the stories of the minorities affected by it as well as the stories of those people working to improve diversity, equity and inclusion in this predominantly white community.
Equity Work
Diversity Coalition's work has focused on creating building blocks to get closer to an equitable community, but in the meantime we recognize the current barriers that our community faces, due to inequitable systems and policies.
While we prioritize educational initiatives, we recognize the urgency of tackling pressing equity challenges immediately.

Women of Color Network
Women of color experience unique perspectives at the intersection of race and gender. This dual identity often results in distinct social, economic, and cultural outcomes that are not fully addressed by movements focusing solely on either race or gender. By fostering connections and celebrating their achievements, we can promote inclusivity, amplify their voices, and work towards a more equitable society for all.
