From the Ground Up: Facilitating Equity-Focused Partner Tracking

Northwest Harvest's Learning and Impact (L&I) department is focused on the implementation of equity-focused systems to fight food injustice. To that end, it's critical for them to maintain comprehensive, transparent records of their community partnerships, with an emphasis on tracking information that can be used to foster growth of programs and partnerships through the lens of antiracism. In order to help realize that system, I conducted a departmental needs assessment centered around Salesforce data fields, then presented a compilation of my findings and data field requests to Northwest Harvest’s Salesforce administrator, and we established a rough timeline for implementation.
