As part of Gov. Ralph Northamâs âOne Virginiaâ plan, local governments and other organizations are encouraged to critique themselves when it comes to implementing racial equity strategies.
Fredericksburg officials met last Thursday and Friday at a two-day retreat at Executive Plaza on Caroline Street to advance the cityâs racial equity initiative. Among the topics of discussion was the Continuum of Inclusive and Equitable Organizational Development, which is part of the One Virginia plan.
The continuum lists six stages of achieving inclusiveness, with Stage 6 being the ultimate goal. Fredericksburg Mayor Mary Katherine Greenlaw said the city is currently reviewing its practices to determine where it falls short, which would place it at Stage 4 or the âaffirmingâ stage.
