Community Dashboard Trainings
Join a Learning Session in June

Data gives us the opportunity to better understand the lives of all our community members. It helps us be data-informed, inclusive, and equitable in the ways we seek to increase child and family well-being as part of a strategic 2Gen-informed approach.
Join us for a training on the Community Indicators Dashboard. The Dashboard provides insights for philanthropy, nonprofit organizations, businesses, government, and learning institutions to guide informed decisions utilizing data from reputable sources set in local context.
What You'll Learn:
- Dashboard data points, interactive charts, maps and visualizations related to county profiles, education, economy, health, and housing
- Discuss ways to use the Dashboard for program and service development, grant applications, building awareness with stakeholders, research, content development and more
- How to download content and embed them to reports, communications or grant applications
