its partners. To ensure we hit the mark, we invited an advisory
committee of organizations such as Mapleton Fall Creek
Community Development Corporation (CDC), King Park CDC,
United Way, Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), and
Plan 2020 staff to guide the development of the tool.”
“SAVI has always allowed you to look at data through the
lens of geography and place” said Kandris. “IndyVitals makes
it much easier to look at the data through other lenses as well
without having to mine through SAVI’s expansive database.
It allows you to easily explore disparities across race groups,
genders, education levels, income levels, and geography. You
also get simpler views of the data, such as bar charts and
trend lines.”

“As our community development system evolves from a
peanut-butter approach, where we spread limited resources
evenly everywhere, to the point it’s too thin to taste, IndyVitals
will allow all community development partners to look at a
neighborhood, see the same story, and respond to the specific
needs of each neighborhood in a way that is much more
targeted and more relevant to the needs of residents,”
Co-Manager of Plan 2020 Beaubien commented. “It’s not
only a way to measure the progress of our collective impact
partnership, it’s a way to coordinate the actions of the collective
partners through data.”
