Summary
The Office of Equity, with only about three staff supporting multiple commissions, says it can handle three ad hoc committees per commission. The safety committee was sunsetted over a two-day retreat that was too big a lift; commissioners discussed a lighter, district-by-district outreach model starting in January, possibly with nonprofit partners.

Impact analysis
Hiring nonprofits instead of relying on city staff was floated as a way to fund community workshops without straining the Office of Equity.
Women and girls across Long Beach's nine council districts would get local access to workshops on safety, financial literacy, and other needs identified in the commission's report.
