16. Statistics • Zip Code statistics http://www.census.gov/epcd/www/zipstats.html • A good place to start • How does this population compare to the state, county, or city overall?

17. Statistics • Census data http://www.census.gov/ • What does the census data say about the target population, the Memphis community, the county, or the state at large? • How does this community compare to others? http://2010.census.gov/2010census/data/

18. Pick Health Indicatorshttp://healthindicators.gov/Indicators/Selection • Consider • MIFA role in addressing • Impact of partnerships with UTHSC • Technology • How does it all relate
