Join us for an interactive discussion about our recent data liberation project:
Health in Hartford’s Neighborhoods
. We used public secondary data on health and housing and found some compelling new issues for advocates. We want to hear from others about their data work and continue to generate powerful insights to expand opportunity in Hartford. We know there are great primary and secondary data available and want to connect to build that data ecosystem together.Feel free to share this event with others who might be interested and please reach out with any questions.We look forward to connecting on the 19th.
