BoardCity Of San Jose Strategic Program
This document outlines MAPS (Minorities Advancing in Public Service), a strategic methodology and evaluation program addressing structural racism within local governments, particularly the City of San Jose. The program aims to increase minority representation in leadership by closing opportunity gaps. It involves three key areas: recognizing structural racism and reviewing employment data, reforming recruitment practices through diverse hiring panels and mandatory diversity training, and establishing support services like mentorship to retain and advance minority talent into leadership positions. The overarching goal is to achieve equity and justice in public service.
