As communities across the country strive to help residents exit poverty, achieve economic success, and live in a more equitable society, the importance of local data for creating meaningful and lasting change has never been greater. Harnessing these data is crucial for local leaders, advocates, researchers, and anyone committed to advancing upward mobility and racial equity in their communities.
Join Urban Institute on October 2 for an in-depth look at their new Upward Mobility Data Dashboard. You’ll hear from five speakers who will share the latest tools, research, and real-world examples of data-driven initiatives in communities. Attend virtually from anywhere or join in person if you’re in the DC area.

- For those attending in person, network with fellow leaders at a reception immediately following the event.
