Local organizations play a critical role in creating systemic change within the criminal legal system. With better access to data and technology, communities can advocate for and implement policies that promote equity. Urban Institute and the Microsoft Justice Reform Initiative are partnering to fund projects that use data and technology to promote racial equity in the criminal legal system. These projects aim to advance racial equity in areas such as prevention, policing, and prosecution. Highlights include: - Analyzing data to support overincarcerated groups - Investigating racial disparities in arrests to improve policing practices - Developing tools for court watching programs to enhance pre-trial decision transparency - Grantees will receive funding, expert assistance, access to Microsoft technology, and peer learning opportunities. Interested in learning more or know someone who might be? Explore the program and sign up for updates about the next proposal call this fall: https://ow.ly/xji750SyQ5O #RacialEquity #JusticeReform

How do you choose software to manage your data? By focusing on features or reporting first?
We often find that nonprofits (like many organizations) go about choosing software to manage their data by looking at features first. As a data enthusiast (nerd), I think reports should be the first thing people consider instead. Reports play a crucial role in making data valuable, and many nonprofits seek our help when they can't get reports they need from their software. Frustration with expensive software that fails to deliver the right reports often leads to abandonment. Understanding features is important, but grasping how software stores, processes, and creates reports from your data is crucial for long-term satisfaction. These aspects are challenging to showcase in a demo but are essential.
