Our Timeline
Our Collaborations
This project will incorporate the perspectives, data, and suggestions of representatives from five perspectives. This will happen through group discussions, focus groups, surveys, and written feedback.
Our Co-Design Process
We will study the public health and service system impacts of our data products with a rigorous trial. We plan to learn more about data-driven decision making, system collaborations, and what data points are most valuable to local decision makers.
Our Evaluation and Dissemination Process
This work is in collaboration with numerous community partners and our research colleagues at University of California-San Diego (UCSD). We thank them for their valuable contributions to the project!
