Evanston Equity Scorecard
Introduction
The Equity Scorecard is a tool for Evaluating Projects, Policies, and Practices through an equity lens.
It was created by the Evanston Equity & Empowerment Commission with input from the Evanston

Equity Impact Assessment Toolkit, the Twin Cities Equity Scorecard, and Evanston District 65
Equity Rubric.
Equity, as defined in this document, refers broadly to race, income, disability, gender identity, age,
language access, and more.
The Evanston Equity Scorecard should be utilized when making referrals for City Council
consideration to ensure equity is intentionally being considered and is embedded in the
development, evaluation, and implementation of City policies, programs, and practices.
This includes, but is not limited to:
● New project development
● Policy or ordinance drafting
● Housing development
● Changes to land use and zoning
● Budget allocations
● Public subsidies
● Tax abatements
● Strategic planning
● Community engagement process
