Launched in October 2020, the CEO Action for Racial Equity (CEOARE) Fellowship brings together top talent and resources to advance public policies and corporate engagement strategies that will address systemic racism and social injustice while improving societal well-being. The Fellowship mobilizes the larger collective business community – across all industries and regions – to collectively put values into action, activate networks, and collaborate through a business lens.
The CEOARE agenda revolves around four platforms that are vital to advancing equity and well-being for our country’s 47+ million Black Americans: Economic Empowerment, Education and Opportunity, Healthy Communities, and Public Safety.
With these platforms as the foundation of our policy advocacy and corporate engagement, CEOARE unites 100+ signatory companies to drive impact across six priority issues that disproportionately and systemically impact the Black community and three corporate engagement strategies that will help mobilize the business community to continue to help drive change.
