NOCCA Equity Definition:

• Equity is fairness in action for all:
• Equity is valuing diversity and fairness through actions, systems, and policies. Equity is more than intention. It seeks to undo systemic injustices.
• Equity means that everyone is offered what they individually need in order to succeed. Equity does not mean everyone receives the same things in the same way.
• Equity within NOCCA means that each member of the community feels safe, supported, and respected
