We heard from Bill Block, a Funders Together member, and Marc Dones, executive director of the National Innovation Service, about an evaluation project they're undertaking to evaluate racial equity tools that communities are using. We also spent time mapping out questions and parts of an ecosystem that set us up for our October convening.
