Our Story

Measure Well was created because community leaders are being asked to solve increasingly complex challenges with limited resources and fragmented information.

Data and technology infrastructure and scaffolding is required for all social impact programming, but is often underfunded and overlooked. In the age of rapidly transforming technology, nonprofit leaders need access to repeatable scalable best-in-class architecture – not highly siloed approaches.

Incredible work is happening in communities across the country every day.

Right now, there are enormous opportunities for organizations and leaders who can clearly articulate and prove which interventions and programs are working, and what approaches led to great results. Measure Well is a co-partner in helping community organizations tackle and rise to the challenge.

We believe leaders deserve the best tools and technology, easier ways to share what is working, and more opportunities to learn from each other. Our role is to help connect the dots and co-design solutions to solve tough problems.

Our areas of focus

We help place-based networks, intermediaries, backbones, and the communities they serve, understand what interventions, programs, and investments are working to improve outcomes across seven cradle-to-career competencies in communities across the United States: preschool readiness, elementary reading, middle school math, high school graduation, postsecondary attendance, and job attainment.

The idea behind Measure Well

Community wins and interventions that work are worth sharing. Some communities have figured out new ways to improve attendance. Others have built stronger pathways to employment. Others are helping families access literacy and math skill building programs.

Measure Well exists to help communities across the United States learn from one another, share what works, and move forward together.

What is a place-based partnership?

A place-based partnership is a group of organizations working together to improve outcomes in a specific community.

That might include schools, nonprofits, local government, employers, higher education institutions, and community leaders working toward shared goals.

These partnerships understand that no single organization can solve complex community challenges alone. Measure Well supports the people leading that this work
