About

Inspired by students at Duke University and North Carolina Central University, the dashboard was developed to foster responsive, innovative partnerships between higher education institutions and public schools across North Carolina. The team created a centralized web application to help school communities visualize the existing assets surrounding their school buildings.

Data can be uploaded manually or automatically generated through periodic Google searches. Community school coordinators and other practitioners can choose which resources to include or exclude. The tool also allows practitioners to add internal notes to each resource, helping them collect and organize additional context about partnerships.
