TRANSFORMING Communities

HARC specializes in providing data that helps organizations innovate in order to transform the lives of those living in the communities they serve. Our data helps clients improve the social determinants of health which feature the conditions of where people live, work, and play. These include factors such as the economy, education, social structures and support, neighborhoods and the built environment, and, of course, healthcare.
