SUMMARY:SAVI Data Literacy Skills Training – Tell Stories with Data
DESCRIPTION:This workshop teaches the next steps of persuasively communicating what you have learned after gaining initial insight from data. You will learn the skills to put your analysis in the context of a compelling narrative and to build your argument logically and convincingly. Whatever your audience\, weaving the data into a story is what communicates your findings to others\, whether it be a small data set\, large data set\, or multiple data sets. \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND? \nAnyone interested in taking the next step from understanding their data and visualizing it\, to telling a cohesive story to others about their data. \nWHAT WILL YOU LEARN? \n\nTo find the compelling narrative in your data\nTo connect facts that build a compelling argument\nTo use compelling graphics to communicate your point\nTo tailor your delivery to your audiences needs\n\nUSEFUL KNOWLEDGE TO HAVE BEFORE ATTENDING \nNo prior knowledge is required\, but you may find it useful to attend the Module 1A: Framing the Problem workshop prior to this one. In that workshop you learn how to frame problems so that you have specific and measurable questions that can help you meet your goals. You may also want to consider attending the SAVI Data\, Tools\, and Other Resources workshop which explores where and how to find data in SAVI.  \nThis offering is hosted by The Polis Center\, the creators of SAVI. Through this offering\, they will use the Central Indiana map\, but the lessons remain the same for Southern Indiana region.

SUMMARY:Grant Writing with Impact: Using Data to Strengthen Your Case
DESCRIPTION:Nonprofit organizations play a critical role in addressing community needs\, yet many face challenges in clearly articulating those needs and demonstrating their impact in grant applications. While organizations often collect valuable program data and have access to publicly available data sources\, they may lack the tools\, confidence\, or capacity to effectively translate that information into compelling\, data-informed narratives. As a result\, strong programs can be overlooked for funding—not due to lack of impact\, but due to an inability to clearly communicate needs and outcomes. \nThis workshop is designed to address that gap by equipping nonprofit leaders with practical\, accessible strategies to confidently use data in their grant writing. Participants will leave with guidance on how to identify\, gather\, and apply both publicly available data and their program data to strengthen grant proposals. \nBy the end of the session\, participants will learn to: \n\nDevelop the ability to build clear\, compelling grant narratives\nIncrease confidence in identifying and using publicly available data sources\nGain practical skills in using tools such as the new community dashboard to access community data\nStrengthen their ability to communicate program impact using their own data\n\nBy building participants’ confidence and capacity to use data effectively\, this workshop will help organizations develop stronger\, data-informed proposals that more accurately reflect both the urgency of community needs and the impact of their work. \nThis training will be presented by Transform Consulting Group. \nFollowing the session\, attendees will be asked to complete a brief survey.  \nPlease Note: This training was previously titled Using Data in Grant Writing. While the title and description have been updated\, the content remains the same and continues to provide the same valuable information and learning experience.
