RACIAL DIVERSITY, OPPORTUNITY & HARMONY
In all six foundations and strategies of Visioneering Wichita, we will be committed
to racial diversity, opportunity
and harmony for everyone.
ATTITUDE SURVEY: Conduct a regular scientific attitude survey to measure changes
in perceptions about racial diversity, opportunity and harmony. The survey will
establish indices that measure diversity, opportunity and harmony in social interaction,
jobs, education, healthcare and leadership (after the initial survey in 2005,
expected
annual increments of improvement in the indices will be established.)
INCOME GAP: Be above the U.S. per capita income for each minority group by 2010
and by 2020 eliminate one-half of each minority per capita income gap. |
