WHO WE ARE
Equidad—Spanish for equity—is the foundation of our mission.
At Equidad ATX, we are a catalyst for holistic, equitable, and sustainable neighborhood revitalization in Austin’s Eastern Crescent. Our mission is to disrupt the cycle of generational poverty and remove systemic barriers that have long divided the city.
​
For nearly a century, policies like the 1928 Master Plan enforced racial segregation, economic disparities, and concentrated poverty east of I-35. These inequities persist today. We work with the community to create lasting change, ensuring every resident has access to housing, education, and opportunities to thrive.
