“If you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go far, go together.”
No one entity can create lasting, impactful change in a silo.
That’s why creating collaboration and partnerships will help achieve our shared mission to end homelessness.
We are honored to have partnered with Flywheel Social Enterprise Hub and the City of Cincinnati on the recent Housing Stabilization Hackathon.
More than 20 data scientists, programmers, market research professionals, real estate investors, and community development advocates came together. All with a common goal.
Improving early intervention to keep families housed, stable and strong.

Participants – many with lived experience of homelessness – represented an important cross-section of our community including many women and POC.
Conversation and connection with the participants will continue – and for that we are grateful. Read more about the participants and their presentations.
Using Data for Good
- Using inclusive data to develop impactful public-private partnerships is crucial to serving communities and creating lasting change.
-
While data sharing is often key to the success of human services programs and projects, it must be done responsibly and ethically.
-
The philanthropic sector sees the value in data, too. And sees how in order to advance equity, we must address underlying bias in data collection.
- Foundations across the country are making the investment in lasting change in a data-driven and human approach.
“Let’s challenge ourselves to uncover ways technology can be used to help the most vulnerable.”
