Experts from the NYC Department of Health & Mental Hygiene and the Pratt Center for Community Development will talk about their work using NYC Open Data to analyze community health statistics.

Pratt will lead a training on using their Neighborhood Data Portal. Launched in 2016, the Portal is a free, online data mapping platform that integrates up to dozens of datasets that break down NYC by the numbers.

The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene will discuss datasets from surveys, vital statistics and disease surveillance as well as research-based reports and publications. The updated data tools make it easier than ever to incorporate this robust data into your research, grant writing, programming, and evaluation.

There will be a representation from Pratt Center for Community Development, New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, and Lehman College, Bronx Business Tech Incubator.
