Community Well-Being Index

When Sharecare partnered with Boston University School of Public Health to expand the Community Well-Being Index beyond individual well-being to the conditions shaping community health, the Index needed a new way to explain its value. As project manager and content strategist, I wrote the first reports in the new format, led the Data in Action series that turned roughly 500,000 annual survey responses into stories for media, policymakers, and partners, and designed the state scorecards and partner site that repositioned the Index from a research tool into an offering states and employers could buy.

The redesign turned a research instrument into something states and employers could actually use. The Data in Action series gave the survey data a public form, and the state scorecards made community health legible at a glance.
