People should have a say in how their state provides access to education and workforce data.
As state leaders build robust P–20W data systems, they must deliberately create consistent opportunities for communities to weigh in. Incorporating feedback from and making decisions with communities enables leaders to center people’s data access needs, develop stronger data tools, and build trust in data. Without meaningful community engagement, states risk creating systems and tools that don’t work for the people they are meant to serve.
Our new resource shares best practices for states to consider as they engage communities. Investing in robust community engagement is worth it to ensure that states are building systems and tools that people trust and use—the first time around.
