The Office of Equity and Civil Rights is making progress in many areas! We have completed a review of our Equitable Engagement Compensation Program (EECP) to make it easier for the agency to use. We will be integrating feedback and testing it with agency partners in the near future. I want to give kudos to Lisa Brown, Jennifer Erickson and Gabriela Santoyo-Gutierrez for their work on this effort.
OECR has been operating a deficit for a few months now. I want to recognize Angela Crain, Alyssa Soots and others for stepping in when asked to keep our office running smoothly until critical roles can be filled. I appreciate the hard work and dedication of the OECR managers and employees. With that said, OECR will have some open positions in the coming weeks! Please keep your eyes open on related job boards for these positions and share them with your networks! I’m excited for where the Office of Equity and Civil Rights is going and am grateful to the team for their hard work, leadership and dedication to ODOT.
