In partnership with our friends at Kennesaw State University, we have embarked on a new objective to bring together changemakers in our community. Collectively, we will create a central repository of meaningful, trustworthy data to be known as the Cobb Vital Signs initiative.
Tyler Reinagel, Associate VP of Economic Development at KSU and Shari Martin, CEO & President of Cobb Community Foundation led a discussion today at the first Cobb Vital Signs Information Session where the vision for how the study would work was shared. Discussion took place around available data, and then community changemakers in the room were invited to share which types of data would be valuable to them, but which is not readily available.
Information gathered today will be used to help create an executive summary, a project plan and next steps. Look for more announcements on this plan coming soon.
