Dr. D’Artagnan Scorza, Executive Director of Racial Equity for Los Angeles County, provided a presentation to the City Council at the April 11, 2024 meeting. Scorza’s highlighted work being done for the Year Two; State of Black Los Angeles Report, an online interactive report comprised of several in-depth sections centered on the outcomes and lived experiences of Black people in Los Angeles County across a host of metrics.
It assesses how Black residents are doing on 36 indicators, all within the domains of health, housing, income and employment, education, and safety and justice. Scorza noted the second year’s report will expand its focus including capturing more complete data on veterans, maternal morbidity, rent burden, and the needs of youth.
The themes from Year Two’s report are “Era of Regression”, belonging, and quality of life. You can read the full official inaugural report by Los Angeles County Anti-Racism, Diversity, and Inclusion (ARDI) Initiative online at the LA County’s website.
