Data Storytelling Support

Effective data storytelling is a powerful way to share your organization’s impact. Funding sources, non-profit boards, current and potential employees, service recipients, and small donors all want to see that your organization is fulfilling its mission, staying true to its values, and using resources responsibly. Data can help you tell this story, but sometimes you might need help to ensure that story you are telling is truly supported by the data you are using, and that your target audience will interpret the data in the way you expect.

Educational Program Design

Many non-profits engage in educational programs to engage the community, build awareness of key aspects of their mission, and close knowledge gaps within their target stakeholder groups. Educational programs are often time- and resource-intensive, so strategic program design (and redesign!) is critical to ensure that programs are both impactful and sustainable. Learners of all ages have unique learning interests, needs, and abilities. Effective education programs are designed to leverage these unique characteristics to achieve specific learning outcomes.

Evaluation and Reporting

I can support the evaluation and reporting of your project or program for any type of evaluation audience and at any stage of the project. I help to identify stakeholders and their information needs, and determine the appropriate report format(s). What might be useful to one stakeholder may not be useful to another. Reporting has many potential purposes and may need to be presented in multiple formats to accomplish its objectives. Formats could include data dashboards, PowerPoint presentations, one-page summaries, or more formal written reports. My expertise in data visualization is particularly helpful when sharing findings in evaluation reports.

Strategic Data Planning

I facilitate the development of your data strategy to support your mission and goals, as well as a plan to execute your data strategy. Understanding your data landscape is essential for your organization to make informed decisions, implement effective data strategies, and derive value from your data assets. It involves considering the interconnectedness of various data-related elements to create a coherent and strategic approach to data management and utilization.
