Important Paper About Indicators and Performance Measures

"Creating Stronger Linkages between Community Indicator Projects and Government Performance Measures" is a newly published white paper created by the Community Indicators Consortium with support from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. It originally grew from discussions at our December 2005 conference and then was reviewed by a panel of experts in the field. We invite you to read the paper, make use of its information, and let us know what you think. CLICK HERE to read the PDF.

· SCOPE, in Sarasota, FL, has been chosen as one of the Top 20 finalists in the Case Foundation's "Make it Your Own" award. SCOPE made significant changes to its Community Report Card this past year, adding monthly releases and community-wide events, the most significant of which was The Summit for Environmental Action held in February. The Summit focused individuals on taking action in important and measurable ways, and it resulted in five action initiatives which SCOPE is moving forward. This Summit is part of what caught the interest of the Case Foundation. SCOPE's winning depends on the number of online votes they receive. Visit www.scopeexcel.org to learn more about SCOPE and go to http://miyo,casefoundation.org/vote/ to vote for SCOPE and help them win $25,000.

· Enhanced American FactFinder (AFF) Comments Requested

The U.S. Census Bureau is enhancing the current American FactFinder (AFF) to add features and improve its functionality. It has identified a number of improvements which are described in the link https://questionweb.com/63144/.

Please review them and then provide up to five additional items you would like to see incorporated into the new system. (Note: The survey will be available for comments, March 10 - March 31, 2008.) Given the limited resources available for enhancing the AFF, the Census Bureau may not be able to implement all the suggestions.

· National Neighborhood Indicators Project (NNIP) has released the Catalogue of Administrative Data Sources for Neighborhood Indicators by Claudia J. Coulton. This comprehensive update of the earlier publication describes 42 administrative data sources. Administrative data are particularly useful for community indicators because they are timelier and can be applied to smaller areas than government surveys. The Catalogue is available on DataPlace or go to www.urban.org/publications/411605.html
