About


The Englewood Data Hub (EDH) brings together non-profit organizations providing child and youth services in the greater Englewood community to foster dialogue, collaboration, advocacy and community building. The EDH is supported by The Joseph and Bessie Feinberg Foundation.

In 2016, the Englewood Data Hub conducted an asset scan of services available to youth in Englewood and West Englewood to provide a resource to identify organizations where youth could be referred for needed services in the greater Englewood community. To add or correct information in the Resource Directory, send an email to englewooddatahub@gmail.com.

This web-based project was designed and implemented in 2017 by a group of researchers at the Electronic Visualization Laboratory, University of Illinois at Chicago, with funding from The Joseph and Bessie Feinberg Foundation. Details are available here.

In addition to using the data from the EDH asset scan, this project also integrates City of Chicago data (Crime and Land Inventory) that has been modified from its original source, www.cityofchicago.org, the official website of the City of Chicago.

This project further integrates US Census data publicly available from the US Census Bureau. The Census Bureau serves as the leading source of quality data about the nation's people and economy.
