Tools & Strategies

This is where you will come to find information on how to incorporate data and maps into your work for community action. We are in the process of developing this section of the website, so check back regularly to see if we have added new information. Also, please send us an email (link) if you know of additional resources that should be listed in this section.

Data Analysis and Presentation
ITS Connection is a website that provides resources and training modules for teachers. The site offers free computer-based training (CBT) modules on Excel, which is a spreadsheet program that allows you to manipulate data, and Powerpoint, which allows you to create presentations with data.

Using Technology for Social Change
Organizers' Collaborative helps grassroots organizations use technology for social change. The ãTech Tips for Activistsä link from their homepage contains many links and resources for beginning and intermediate technology users.

Using Data in Fundraising Proposals
The Greater New Orleans Development Corporation has written an informative guide on what types of data funders like to see in needs assessments. This guide (and other useful information about using neighborhood data) can be found on the ãArticlesä section of their homepage.
