Sample data of new indicators from the scorecard were shared at the January 10, 2022 RBA Committee Meeting, as well as at the Leadership Board Meeting on January 20, 2022.The new scorecard is currently underway and has 13 indicators that will now be disaggregated by race/ethnicity(whereas in the past there were none), will add measures to monitor coordinated entry, and includes additional data from 211 and census data.
