From APA National:

APA is pleased to launch a new video series, Voices of Equity in Planning, to raise awareness of the unique responsibility and capability planners have to center social equity in their work. A full announcement about the series can be found here.

The videos are being produced with support from members of the Social Equity Task Force, whose report was accepted by the APA Board in 2019, and successfully integrated into APA's Equity, Diversity and Inclusion strategy by the Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee last year.
