MAPSCorps
We train youth to produce high quality data about community assets that everyone can use to improve the human condition.
High school students are employed as community data scientists. We train youth to apply scientific method and mobile technology to capture data about all the public-facing businesses and organizations serving their community. MAPSCorps provides the first paid employment experience for half of participating youth.
Our data boost local economies by making sure every public-facing business and organization is on the map. We've mapped more than 25,000 businesses and organizations in Chicago and New York City.
