Equity Matters
Equity Matters is a Seattle, Washington-based women of color consulting team. We specialize in supporting organizations in the pursuit of racially just transformation. We engage individuals in making organizational changes that last beyond the current people.
We use collaborative planning, assessments, workshops, and practice and design labs to support systemic racial equity change. We have close to two decades of experience supporting government entities, educational institutions, philanthropic and non-profit organizations.
We value relationships, systems change, transformation, slowing down, squad care, and focusing on power.

Strengthening Connections
Are you looking to build meaningful connections & advance racial equity? Our Connection Cards are designed to spark deep, thoughtful conversations that foster both stronger relationships and racial equity. Each physical deck is thoughtfully crafted with group prompts and companion resource articles that encourage open dialogue, reflection, and action in small or large group settings.
We currently offer Color Brave Space Norms Connection Cards, and Racial Equity Four Systems Evaluation Connection Cards are in development. More racial equity-focused decks are coming soon! If you would like to learn more or see a physical deck, please contact Heidi.
