Data Walks
Data walks are an effective means to disseminate data and spark change, and by conducting data walks, through cross-sectional partnerships, communities have been empowered to take ownership of their health. A team of multidisciplinary epidemiologists work collaboratively with community coalitions to discuss what data should be displayed during the data walks, in order to provide a tailored and unbiased snapshot of the communities' health. All data is analyzed through a health equity lens, with most data indicators stratified by various demographic subcategories. Data walks are in conjunction with community health improvement planning processes and serve as a resource to identify leading health topics in the community.

This tour was created to provide a clear visual example of what a data walk looks like, since the term is often misunderstood. Viewers will see the format, layout, and flow first hand — helping them understand what to expect and why participating in or hosting a data walk can be impactful.
