As a donor, do you ever question whether your donations are having the impact you expect? Do you often feel like you are just writing checks to organizations because they asked or because it makes you feel good?
Over the past eight years, our program, Giving for Impact, has made a tremendous difference in how people donate and partner with nonprofits.
This workshop will help you apply the skills learned in other workshops to your own real-world, data-informed project.
Before you can begin using data to inform decisions, identify what you are trying to accomplish and determine how data can help you get there.
This workshop covers the strengths, weaknesses, and costs of readily available data sets, including SAVI, so you have the information you need to locate the data that is right for you.
Join us for a virtual workshop featuring experts from the Urban Institute’s Upward Mobility Initiative. This session provides a deeper dive into the practical application of the Mobility Metrics and how they can be used to drive positive change within communities. The workshop will feature the following: - A live demo of the Upward Mobility Data Dashboard, showcasing its features and functionalities. - A hands-on exercise to examine and compare your community’s data, identifying key areas for improvement. - Speakers from communities using these data to understand and address conditions that enhance upward mobility for residents. These speakers will share their experiences and insights, offering practical examples of how the data are being applied to make meaningful progress. Facilitators will demonstrate how to use local data to assess community conditions and monitor progress toward upward mobility and racial equity. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and gain valuable insights into creating lasting change in their communities. By harnessing data related to economic success, dignity and belonging, and power and autonomy, local leaders can identify strengths and areas for improvement and develop targeted strategies to enhance upward mobility for all residents, especially those historically excluded from prosperity.
