Annie E. Casey Foundation President Recognizes Key Source of Neighborhood Data

Foundation President and CEO Patrick McCarthy addressed members of the National Neighborhood Indicators Partnership — a network of more than 30 local organizations that collect, organize and use neighborhood data to inform local advocacy and decision making — who gathered in Baltimore for their semiannual meeting.

The Foundation has supported the National Neighborhood Indicators Partnership, managed by the Urban Institute, since its inception two decades ago. The network is a critical ally in providing data, research and evidence to help guide decision making.

McCarthy’s remarks emphasized the essential role the partnership and its members play as sources of strong, reliable data. In cities across the country, they help highlight the challenges and opportunities for kids, families and communities.
