The Mabel K. Edmonds Excellence in Equity Award recognizes a program or initiative at a community or technical college that focuses on intentional and effective equity-conscious practices that mitigate inequities through workforce education. Award recipients are chosen based on six application criteria: executive summary, excellence in equity, partner and community involvement, innovation and agility, outcome driven results/potential impact, and replication.
