Newsletter | February 2025 CTData 2024 Annual Report ReleaseAs we reflect on a year of impactful data-driven initiatives across Connecticut, we
are proud to showcase the meaningful work accomplished through our cross-sector partnerships in our 2024 Annual Report. Our collaborative efforts have strengthened data ecosystems and fostered evidence-based decision-making throughout the state. The success of our initiatives stems from the dynamic partnerships we have cultivated with organizations across the state. These relationships have allowed us to expand our reach,
deepen our impact, and develop more robust data solutions for our communities. We look forward to strengthening our existing partnerships and welcoming new collaborators as we continue this important work. Together, we will harness the power of data to drive positive change.

Our team identified several areas for improvement that, if addressed, should make a real difference in how Connecticut’s diverse communities are represented. For more information,
