Justin Sykes: Building Community and Youth Power through the Metro Atlanta Racial Equity Atlas

Justin Sykes (he/him), currently serves as a consultant at Partnership for Southern Equity (PSE), working across the organization’s Just Growth and YES! For Equity portfolios. For the National Equity Fellowship project, he began developing a collection of fact sheets featuring data from the Metro Atlanta Racial Equity Atlas (MAREA) — an interactive tool that combines lived experiences of residents and data to foster community agency over neighborhood development. The fact sheets provide MAREA data customized for local ambassadors to use in their advocacy and data storytelling to build community and youth power.
