IMPACT served as the NNIP partner from May 2015 through March 2016, but the organization is no longer providing neighborhood data and related services. Stakeholders in Milwaukee have supported the creation of a new nonprofit called Data You Can Use that is committed to the NNIP principles and dedicated to providing neighborhood data and related services. Local funders and partner organizations are solidifying institutional arrangements to establish a sustainable local data intermediary with the support of Urban/NNIP staff. Planning is underway to align efforts with the Milwaukee Data Initiative and the Code for America Brigade, broadening the base and strengthening the effort.
