Author: Leah Hendey, G. Thomas Kingsley | Year of Publication: 2015
NeighborhoodInfo DC supports the DC Promise Neighborhood Initiative (DCPNI) and is a partner in the National Neighborhood Indicators Partnership (NNIP), a peer-learning network operated by the Urban Institute. To inform its planning efforts, DCPNI used the data NeighborhoodInfo DC staff had compiled and analyzed. NeighborhoodInfo DC participated in working groups and shared data on crime, education, and early childhood that highlighted important issues and drove the formation of program strategies. This brief is part of a series on how NNIP partners advance the work of federal place-based initiatives.
