'" Equity' means fairness and justice by focusing on the outcomes that are most appropriate for a given group based on different challenges, needs and histories. It is distinguished from diversity, which can simply mean variety (the presence of individuals of various identities). Equity does not equate to equality or equal treatment, which does not take into account the specific needs or consequences of each group. Systemic equity implies a strong system and a dynamic process designed specifically to create, support and maintain social justice." -Race Reporting Guide
