Equality: Everyone get's the same - regardless if it's needed or right for them. People approaching a curb leading to a crosswalk. A child and an adult are able to step off the curb onto the sidewalk. A person in a wheelchair and an older adult with impaired vision are stopped at the edge of the curb.
Equality: Everyone gets what they need - understanding the barriers, circumstances, and conditions. A child, an adult, a person in a wheelchair, and an older adult with impaired vision are successfully traveling over a gentle ramp leading to a crosswalk. Lights, symbols, and audio signals help guide them.

What is Equity?

Equity ensures that each individual has what they need, recognizing their individual barriers, circumstances, and conditions.​
