EPISODE 21: Rural Nonprofit Impact: Using Data to Empower Disability Community Transportation

Carey Services President and CEO Jim Allbaugh discusses the impact of his rural nonprofit organization in the community of Marion, Indiana. The rural nonprofit is dedicated to helping individuals with disabilities turn abilities into opportunities.

Carey Services hired Transform Consulting Group to conduct a research study that informed the development of transportation solutions to support their clients’ ability to work and engage in the community, while also meeting the broader transportation needs of residents and employers. Jim shares how his team uses data strategically to demonstrate why organizations like Carey Services play such a critical role in empowering individuals with disabilities to achieve greater independence. We explore how data storytelling can amplify the impact of mission-driven work.
