Equity Gaps Persist in Bellevue

Our latest Community Report is out! 
The report highlights the equity gaps that persist in Bellevue and that we, as a community, must find a way to close. The challenges are many, but with the commitment from our Partners and support from the wider community, we continue to work to eliminate the inequities and create opportunities for success for all children in Bellevue.
