We are pleased to announce the 2010 call for Real Stories about communities integrating community indicators and performance measures to enhance the use of data by citizens and public officials for better decision-making to improve overall community decisions. We are in the process of selecting the ten best. The authors will be awarded with $2,000 each when their stories are published. This is part of the ongoing project that CIC is coordinating under a two-year grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. The purpose of the grant is to promote, advocate for, and develop a community of practice for integrating community indicators and government performance measures, and for engaging citizens and other key community stakeholders in the process. This expands upon the previous work that identified the benefits and barriers to integrating indicators and performance measures. To learn more CIC’s efforts to promote the integration of community indicators and performance measures follow the CI-PM Integration link.
