Thursday’s Data Walk is final event for 2023 

Cowley County, KS, November 27, 2023: Legacy Regional Community Foundation will host the final 2023 Data Walk on Thursday, November 30 beginning at 6:00 p.m. at First United Methodist Church, 1000 Millington, Winfield.  This event is a community conversation where we “dig into data” as we continue our series of "A Closer Look at Cowley Kids" Data Walks. This event is made possible by local, state and national collaborative partners. If you plan to attend, RSVP to 620-221-7224 by November 29. 


There is often a divide between what we think we know and the reality of what is really happening. The data brings us to a common place from which we can diagnosis the situation and move forward in a skillful manner.  

  

Attendees will move in discussion groups through stations of information examining the facts around poverty in our community. The data zeroes in on kids and how poverty impacts health, education and their potential for a successful future. Seven indicators with Cowley County specific data vetted by the Kansas Health Institute will be on display. Additionally, a short documentary filmed with local experts discussing social determinants of health will be shown.  

   

Legacy Foundation stands in the gap for many issues in our community - acting as a catalyst and thought leader, convening people for action and providing necessary resources.  In 2024 Legacy plans to kick-off Cowley Acts an initiative to further the work.
