CLASP is committed to a racial equity agenda that strengthens equitable public investments, promotes economic opportunities and security for all, protects civil rights, addresses explicitly the challenges of immigrants and their families, and honors the voices of communities of color. That’s why we use a racial equity lens in our policy analysis, as well as partner with civil and immigrant rights advocates to determine where our expertise is most valuable. That includes diagnosing systemic barriers, identifying practical solutions that promote equitable opportunities and outcomes, and lifting up best practices that provide pathways to economic security for all children, youth, and adults.
