NOTEWORTHY QUOTES
"The foundational work of data is leading up to trust and transparency [...] Once we get all the data, it doesn't mean we lock doors and close it and do not do anything with it for the next two or three years. That's the actual place where the magic starts, using that data to connect with the community."
"A nonprofit can use the lens of data equity to inform decisions on the leadership level and throughout the organization by doing the internal systems work to make a change, rather than just doing it to get funding. It's about accountability and making better-informed, equitable, and inclusive decisions."
"Creating space for open and honest conversations about data, including sharing our failures, is key to achieving data equity and making the journey of working with data more meaningful and easier."
