Looking to increase your social impact? To strengthen community health, family outcomes and financial resiliency?
The Public Good harnesses the value of data to make better decisions now. And for the future. Our research helps policy makers and program operators weigh investment options and social impact by listening to community leaders, funders, policy makers and beneficiaries.
Understanding the changing environment through public data and community engagement supports organizations in implementing effective programs. We help clients understand community profiles and business data to manage financial resources and evaluate service performance.

Creating equitable learning opportunities
NYC Public Schools
School choice doesn’t always benefit families equally. Schools that are oversubscribed use screens and lotteries and the process for applying to public school (from PreK to high school) is often confusing and stressful. We aim to make education transparent and accessible to all families, regardless of home address.
