The Southwest Institute for Research on Women (SIROW) hopes to collaborate with TPCH and other local organizations on a two-year project Let’s Measure Better* seeking to identify and address gaps in information that are available and widely accessible about homelessness and housing insecurity in Pima County.
We need the expertise of people who work to end homelessness and who directly serve people experiencing homelessness to learn more about where there are gaps in available data.
Is there information related to homelessness or housing insecurity that prevents you from meeting individual/community needs or operating effectively and efficiently? Are there examples of information that you currently do not have but that would be helpful to you in your work?
We want to hear about these data gaps and strategize about how to address them together. SIROW will be holding a series of focus groups in coming weeks to solicit your input on these topics and learn more about specific data that might be very helpful to you. There are multiple sessions to provide multiple opportunities for you to attend, but no one is expected to attend more than one session.

These focus groups are the beginning of a two-year process in which SIROW researchers will assess community data needs, work to facilitate access and/or creation of these data, and house this information in a publicly available dashboard (as appropriate). Your participation is both deeply appreciated and critical to the success of this project. If you cannot attend a focus group, but have ideas about data needs that would like to share, we will be in touch at a later date with alternative ways to participate.
If you have any questions about this project, please do not hesitate to contact Keith Bentele (Associate Research Professor at SIROW) at keithb@arizona.edu or (954) 621-5141 or Claudia Powell (Associate Director of SIROW) at (520)730-5669.
Thank you!
