Our mission is to build social and economic equity for Black workers engaged in the informal economy. The mission of Equity and Transformation (EAT) is to build social and economic equity for Black workers engaged in the informal economy. https://linktr.ee/EquityandTransformation Equity and Transformation EAT is a non-profit community-led organization founded by and for post-incarcerated people. EAT was established in 2018 with the mission to uplift the voices and power of Black Chicagoans engaged in the informal economy: the diversified set of economic activities enterprises jobs and workers that are not regulated or protected by the state. We have continuously witnessed system-impacted individuals face significant barriers in their everyday lives; they are shut out of the workforce forced into informality and criminalized for surviving. These systemic inequalities often lead to extreme poverty and additional periods of incarceration. EAT is committed to building social and economic equity for informal workers and dismantling anti-Black racism.
