Robert Franklin II, also known as Mr. RAWbert, has been leading efforts toward realizing equity in multiple sectors and industries for the better part of the last two decades.

Most recently, Mr. RAWbert has led health equity implementation work at Children's Hospital Colorado, and has been a consultative partner for community-facing organizations across the country, in efforts to improve connection, access and success. Of special note are the Community-Focused Health Initiative and the Captains of Inclusion Development Program — initiatives that instill the skills and drive necessary to identify and eliminate structural and institutional racism within systems, thereby improving outcomes and experiences for everyone: patients, leaders, family, team and community members ... everyone.

From education and youth development to government and healthcare, Mr. RAWbert, a “Colorado kid,” is especially honored to work in organizations where he can serve in ways he and his family have been supported.

Whether consulting organizations and leaders, speaking on stages across the country and through authorship of scholarly articles and award-winning organizational leadership, Mr. RAWbert challenges entire systems to learn how to recognize differences, talk through their important impacts and leverage them to inspire stronger teams and better outcomes.
