Carol McBride Founder, Equality Ecosystem Coalition, Partner, The Carol McBride Group LLC Author, "HR, Where's Your Freaking Sense of Humor?"
I founded the Equality Ecosystem Coalition because I recognized the urgent and imminent need to stand with other advocacy and civil rights groups to address inequality and injustice against black people and the communities for which they reside. I want to support underserved and underprivileged communities by addressing the underlying root cause of unemployment, incarceration, poverty, brutality, and judicial inequality. I plan to address these areas of disparity through connecting with organizations, advocacy groups and coalitions who are willing to partner and create a equality ecosystem that will eradicate the barriers to justice and equality for fair wage employment, economic development, financial wealth building and second-chance non-violent offender prison to work programs to name a few. Each worthy initiative will be founded using the basic principles of the equality ecosystem methodology which addresses the root cause and core needs of black people and their communities. Our efforts will lead to measurable and attainable results that can be replicated in communities domestically and abroad.
Catherine Gillings Principal Consultant Talent IQ LLC As a founder with the coalition I would like to partner with others to develop a robust strategy to support companies who want to provide jobs that offer a living wage for black and people of color. I also wish to support other Coalition members as they develop action plans for other aspects of the ecosystem. In order to do this I will seek like-minded professionals who are in positions that allow them to share information or provide opportunities that support the above goals. I will also partner with current Coalition members in order to provide support and professional expertise to their programs.
