Broward County Public Schools (BCPS) seeks to ensure equitable opportunities for small, minority- and woman-owned businesses in its contracting and procurement. The 2023 Disparity Study will provide data about marketplace conditions, any potential disparities in the District’s contracting practices, and insights from business owners and other groups. The results will help BCPS assess its current equity efforts and identify possible new ways to encourage the participation of diverse businesses in its contracts.

The Disparity Study Community Forum was hosted by the Office of Economic Development & Diversity Compliance on Wednesday, October 11. Our deepest gratitude to the attendees for your participation. Your thoughtful contributions, questions, and perspectives added valuable layers to the discussion. As we move forward, BCPS will carefully consider the insights shared and work towards building a more equitable and inclusive community.
