5. One D Scorecard

6. 2010 Regional Scorecard What is it? • A comprehensive regional indicators system for metropolitan Detroit, incorporating measures (75 + indicators) in the context of other metropolitan areas. • What is the geography? • Whenever possible, One D defines the region as the Detroit-Ann Arbor-Flint CSA (Combined Statistical Area) which is 9 county area including: Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Monroe, Livingston, Lapeer, St. Clair, Washtenaw and Genesee. • Partners: • Data Driven Detroit, New Economy Initiative and the Community Foundation for SE Michigan • Why does this matter? • The scorecard provides an objective, statistical view of the region’s health based on key indicators that are important to any vital region. “What gets measured gets done.” • Why is One D the administrator? • The sole mission of One D is to act as a convener of information and data, and to help facilitate informed civic discussion around the metrics. • No other organization or initiative’s purpose is to be an objective assembler of people, • issues and data for the benefit of the community at large.

7. Programs Library What is it? • A database of community initiatives. It represents work that supports progress in the scorecard indicators. • Partners: • Non Profit Enterprise at Work (NEW), Michigan Non-Profit Association, foundations, communications personnel of nonprofits, anyone that wants their program represented. • Why does this matter? • There is no other sole repository of information for initiatives within our community. • Why is One D the right administrator? • The sole mission of one d is to act as a convener of information, data and people to encourage an informed civic dialog toward change. • No other organization or initiative’s purpose is to be an objective assembler of people, issues and data for the benefit of the community at large.

8. Leadership We are working with our partners on new and innovative ways to: Develop the next generation of leaders in the region and regional leadership Engage community members already pre-disposed to engagement Foster an informed, civic dialogue between the corporate, non-profit and leadership community Build systems that increase and share capacity

9. Communications One D and Detroit Public Television have been partnering for the past six months to increase awareness of the scorecard indicators, the work and people behind progress in the region. Increase awareness ** Translate ** Give the data context ** Increase a sense of ownership in our community ** Develop a “regional” perspective** Check out our videos at www.mivote.org, You Tube or www.oned.org

10. Issue-Based Work Groups What is it? Community stakeholders identify key issues that relate back to the scorecard indicators.* One D convenes stakeholders to develop solutions & strategies toward change, increase capacity, communication & efficiencies. Simply put, what work can be done that will positively impact our scorecard indicators? Partners Depending on the work group, the partners & group leaders change. Why Does it Matter? There is no existing mechanism outside of One D working to convene stakeholders & influencers to tackle problems as outlined in our scorecard. Why is One D the administrator? One D relates achieving results against the indicators. Assembling a group of influencers & stakeholders that can make an impact, one indicator at a time, is key to the mission of One D. We administer and act as an objective conduit, but we put the power of the strategy development & solution in the hands of others. *Refer to scorecard in Appendix A

Using data from 2006, each additional percentage point improvement in aggregate adult four-year college attainment is associated with a $763 increase in annual per capita income. Raising the national median of the top 51 metro areas from 29.4 percent to 30.4 percent would be associated with an increase in income of $124 billion per year for the nation.
