Access to city or neighborhood-level data is essential for refining public health strategies, but communities feel stuck relying on state- and county-level data to understand what’s happening locally. In this webinar, you'll learn how to access more granular data via the City Health Dashboard and Congressional District Health Dashboard, two freely available and interactive websites that provide data on over 40 measures of health and the factors that shape health, including Frequent Mental Distress, Broadband Connection, Air Pollution, and more. Participants will also learn how to use visualizations—like engaging metric maps—to identify, connect, and tackle neighborhood challenges. With this information, planners can foster meaningful community dialogue, support informed decision-making, and design health‑focused interventions that address the needs of the residents they serve. Learning objectives include: accessing and leveraging local-level data through the City and Congressional District Health Dashboards; utilizing Dashboard technical assistance; and learning how other communities have used Dashboard data to strengthen community health and well-being.CM 1.5
