Who We Are

Our Methodology

Equity

(eq·ui·ty) /ekwədē/
noun
– to create the conditions that enable just and fair inclusion into a society in which all can participate, prosper and reach their full potential

Equality

(e·qual·i·ty) /əˈkwälədē/
noun
– regarding or affecting
all objects in the same way

See the difference? While equal rights under the law have afforded many of us opportunities that
were denied for so long, an equity agenda works to advance just outcomes that are sensitive to the needs and circumstances of the populations in question – erasing the barriers that stand in the way
for everyone to succeed. The reality is there are groups that have much more support systems and resources that enable their success while others are forced to rely on more uncertain circumstances
in under-resourced communities. PSE stands to address these inequities in our communities so prosperity can be created and shared by all.
