Community-partnered indicators

Community indicators · partnership in progress

Data collection is underway in California

In Minnesota, this section surfaces gambling addiction, depression, elder isolation, and other indicators captured by community surveys. The same templates will populate for California once a local research partnership is in place.

Minnesota is the only state with fully collected community data today. The six other featured states (CA, TX, WA, TN, UT, AZ) — including California — have active partnership scopes underway.
