What is it? Community Action has always understood that data is more than numbers — it is relationships, responsibility, and reflection. The purpose of this course is to deepen that understanding and help Community Action Agencies (CAAs) use the data they already collect in ways that strengthen care, strategy, and connection to community.

Across the lessons, you’ll explore the practices, questions, and habits that help data become part of how your agency listens to your community, makes decisions, and measures progress in a values-aligned way.

Who is it for? This is a data course designed for CAA leaders, managers, and emerging data stewards who want to move from “reporting data” to using data meaningfully — to learn, align, advocate, and act with intention. It is not a technical training.
