Welcome to the Kansas Community Data Dashboard

This Data Dashboard provides key data points that deepen your understanding of your community’s health, education, and employment needs to develop actionable plans and identify strong investments for children and families.

How it works

Using the map below, identify the geographic area you want data from. Select the Geography Type from the drop-down menu, and then either type in the search bar or click on the map itself to identify the area you want data from. Tip: You can also identify up to two Comparison Geographies. For example, if you select by County, you can pick a primary county and then two additional counties to compare data.

Once you have your geography selected, click the Request Dashboard button. Enter your email address and the link to your custom Kansas Community Data Dashboard will arrive in your inbox within seconds! The link you receive is a web-based URL that you can save or share out with others. The data within your custom Kansas Community Data Dashboard remains active and updated, so you do not need to re-request your data dashboard unless you lose the link or just wish to view different geographies.

As you open your Community Data Dashboard, we also encourage you to review this User Guide, which walks you through how to interact specifically with the data and provides important details about data limitations. These limitations may influence how you determine to use or share the data.

Once you download your Community Data, take time to familiarize yourself with the information. Engage with it critically; some of the information and data may be new. Consider how your perspectives and experiences inform your understanding of the data. Are there topics that have a greater influence on your community than you previously knew? How can the work you do impact those with the greatest need? What assets already exist in your community that can aid this work? Does your community have  strong partnerships in place for collaboration?

If you have any questions about this data or suggestions to improve this resource, please send us a note.
