Rhode Island Social Equity Data Platform The Rhode Island Division of Statewide Planning, in partnership with 13 other Rhode Island state agencies, developed a platform to better align social equity policies, decisions, and outcomes into our planning process. The platform is intended to increase social equity data transparency and to overlay the unique justice issues communities across the state face. The RI Social Equity Data Platform pulls together more than 37 spatial data indicators on public health, environmental justice, socioeconomics, and transportation into one easy to use, publicly accessible platform. The Platform is intended to help with the initial stage of incorporating equity into policies, plans, and practices – identifying how certain quantifiable indicators are distributed across population groups across the state. The Platform does not designate any specific areas as “equity areas,” but rather displays the extent of individual indicators for every census tract in the state.
