You may think databases don’t sound too exciting, but for
the Ada’s Place Emergency and Transitional Housing Program databases are the
cat’s meow. Our AmeriCorps VISTA member has been hard at work since July
evaluating our grant reports and intake forms and consulting with Cedar
Mountain Software to create a database for collecting statistics and numbers
for our grant applications and reports.
This month, our database became a
reality! We have 35 families and 128 individuals entered into the database, and
soon we’ll be able to see collective data about the services we offer and the
resources gained by homeless families in Missoula. The database will streamline
statistic gathering and free up more time for staff to focus on eliminating racism, empowering
women, and promoting freedom and dignity for all. This
database is a welcome addition to the Ada’s Place team.
Our AmeriCorps VISTAs serving through hard work and humor! |
