MEASURE DATA SUPPORT
Transforming data into actionable change for stronger, more equitable communities.
MEASURE Data Support
Each year, we partner with select organizations to provide equity-focused data analysis that helps them drive meaningful change. We offer four types of free data evaluation tools to support community-led organizations working toward social justice and equity.
The Measure CARE Model
Collaborate with Measure facilitators and data activists to refine, plan and implement community-led solutions for a social justice issue.
How It Works
The Measure CARE Model guides organizations through three key phases, leading to final deliverables that help ensure communities receive the support they need.
PHASE 1:
Identify and analyze how systemic barriers have contributed to the issue. Understand community experiences and needs while strengthening the organization’s commitment to advancing equity.
PHASE 2:
Define community-led solutions and create an actionable plan to achieve them.
PHASE 3:
Develop a Community Mobilization Guide to measure progress and drive lasting impact.

Infographic Storytelling
Measure’s data activists help organizations turn their existing data into infographics. These visual representations are sharable and can be used to advocate for change.
How It Works
- Review your data to make sure it’s complete, identify any gaps and research what needs to be done to fill them.
- Create a selection of designs that best represent your organization’s branding to help people quickly understand your data.
- Structure content in a way that considers audiences who may be unfamiliar with your data and encourage them to see the bigger picture.
