OUR STORY

Founded in 2015 by Meme Styles, Measure is a research and data activism organization committed to elevating lived experience and the numbers to drive equitable change. Today, Measure is proudly led by an all-Black female team dedicated to our mission and creating spaces where data can be translated into a language that’s accessible to all.

Through our advanced data-driven approaches and community-led anti-racist evaluation tools, we ensure that lived experience data is used by communities and institutions to design and implement equitable solutions to address social disparities.
By disrupting traditional research methods, our services give Black, Brown, and Indigenous organizations an advantage in advocating for their causes and obtaining the resources necessary to keep their work alive.
