Overview
Facilitators use Turn the Curve to help a group take a data-based approach to solving their issue. By using the metaphor of a leaky roof, Turn the Curve makes using a data-based approach accessible. It asks you to consider an issue where a trend is going up, like the number of hungry families in a community. Then it asks to consider what it will take to turn the curve on this trend in data. To do that, you need to tell the story behind the data, identify key partners, and create an action plan. This tool includes a script you can use to explain the approach and a worksheet you can use to guide a group through the activity.
