Created by the Advancement Project, a civil rights organization operating out of California, Race Counts is a comparative database that measures overall performance, amount of racial disparity, and impact by population size of counties and cities in California. The database serves as a comprehensive tracking tool across seven issue areas: Democracy, Economic Opportunity, Crime & Justice, Access to Health Care, Healthy Built Environment, Education, and Housing. The Advancement Project believes this comparative data can be used to highlight ongoing racial disparities and push for the institutional and policy change necessary for progress.
