15. DRAWBACKS OF OUR COMMUNITY DASHBOARD 15  The data are not detailed enough to direct action or evaluate the success of specific strategies.  The organization maintaining the dashboard does not fund or provide direct client services.  No agency or organization is fully responsible for any one indicator.  Moving an indicator in the right direction requires action by multiple stakeholders, organizations, and the community at large.

16. BENEFITS OF OUR COMMUNITY DASHBOARD 16  Joint ownership – common language  Provides an opportunity to elevate the work of community partnerships and builds their community identity as the key entity for an issue.  Helps stakeholders better appreciate how their success is tied to success in other disciplines, jurisdictions or sectors.  Helps identify areas needing more attention.  Tells a story about the entire community and gauging our collective success.
