CIC Awards

CIC established the Community Indicators Innovation Awards Program in 2005 to identify, through a nominations process, indicator projects (US or international) that best demonstrated positive change in their communities and the power of indicators to drive that change. The purpose of the Awards from 2005-2008 was to:

celebrate the successes of outstanding indicator projects and the people who create and manage them and
add to the public body of knowledge about community indicator projects' best practices.

In 2012, CIC created additional categories of awards for individuals as well as projects. At the 2012 CIC Conference, we inducted four individuals into our CIC Hall of Heroes and recognized two Emerging Leaders. We also recognized four projects for their exemplary contributions ot the field.

CIC has been excited about breadth and depth of what it has seen and the many ways and places in which communities are coming together to use indicators to drive positive change. The choices have never been easy, but CIC is especially excited about the winners. We invite you to visit the links below to see the winning projects.

We are grateful to the Urban Markets Initiative of The Brookings Institution for their support of the 2005 and 2007 Awards.
