Activity 2

U.s. Programs: prb received support from the lucile packard foundation for children's health to promote the health and well-being of california's children by compiling data for counties, cities, and school districts for more than 200 indicators. With funding from the lumina foundation, prb conducted research and authored a report on the demographic and family background factors affecting u.s. College completion rates. To improve understanding of the value and usefulness of the american community survey (acs), prb has partnered with sabre systems to create and support a new acs data users group. Funded by the u.s. Census bureau, this group is helping acs data users connect with each other to share messages and materials about key acs data issues and applications. (see schedule o for continuation.)

Activity 3

Communications programs: in august, prb launched a new design and information architecture for its websites. Representing the work of a team of prb staff and web designers and developers, the websites were rebuilt using responsive design, where the site automatically shrinks and reformats to fit different screen sizes. This redesign represents a fundamental shift in how prb presents information to audiences who are moving away from desktop computers and toward mobile devices as their preferred way to access information. Visits to the prb websites from mobile devices have tripled in the last year alone. Overall, visitors viewed prb website pages more than 6 million times and downloaded prb reports more than 1.5 million times. (see schedule o for continuation.)
