Study: The Williams Institute
 OVERVIEW:
The J. McDonald Williams Institute mines the facts.
With six primary areas of research — education, crime and
safety, health, housing, social capital, and economic development
— information and insights are gained that can transform
the quality of urban life.
But, just like that proverbial tree falling in the woods, all
the data in the world has little impact if the world isn't given
an meaningful opportunity to hear it and run with it.
That's where The Reeds PRC came in.
STRATEGIES AND CHALLENGES: When you are discovering
and presenting the pieces that can make a city "whole,"
you'd better have a city's attention. When your data challenges
perspectives and suggests new best practices, it makes sense to
preach to those responsible for old perspectives and practices.
It's a better wake-up call.
The Reeds organize The Williams Institute's annual conferences
during which the program's scholars and researchers unveil ...
no, unleash the latest data. The conference also launches
implementation strategy sessions so community leaders can take
the information and immediately put it into action.
RESULTS: The Reeds PRC has energized this conference
with its event organization skills. The Reeds have also gained
civic buy-in for the Institute by delivering the necessary municipal
decision-makers who can best implement new thinking. In addition,
The Reeds help with the fundraising and public relations.
As a result, up to 700 policy makers attend the annual conference.
In Dallas, those policy makers are already incorporating the Institute's
wholeness index in its neighborhood-based crime, economic development
and public education strategies.
The Reeds can also meet your needs in corporate communications,
campaign consultation, community initiatives or event production.
