What Our Partners Are Saying

Hear from clients who trust Data In Action to deliver results

Working with Data in Action was a seamless and enriching experience. What we appreciated most was your team's responsiveness, creativity, and ability to translate our vision into action. Your strategic guidance and attention to detail added real value, and our team felt supported every step of the way. Thank you for being such a thoughtful and impactful partner!

-Tammy Mays, VP of Education, Young Men United, United Way of Central Maryland

Dr. Jain and Data in Action have proven to be valuable partners in a multi-organization collaborative randomized trial, "School-Based Health Centers Healthy Adolescent Relationships Project" (SHARP). Working until the last day of the project period, she demonstrated scientific rigor and passion for adolescent health in her work on the data analysis and dissemination of results for the project. I would highly recommend her (and in fact already have) to anyone interested in using science to further social justice aims.”

-Alison Chopel, Dr.PH, Director, California Adolescent Health Collaborative, Public Health Institute

I was thrilled to find Dr. Jain to provide evaluation, strategic planning, and technical assistance related to our district-wide efforts to reduce racial disproportionality and close the school-to-prison pipeline. Sonia is a joy to work with, is extremely skilled in evaluation, planning, and consultation with district level staff who are engaged in education reform and school transformation efforts in support of ALL students. Her background in public health, juvenile justice, behavioral health and school climate research enabled her to serve as an excellent thought partner and to design tools that are aligned with our core mission and goals. I cannot more highly recommend Sonia and the Data in Action team.

- Barbara McClung, LMFT, Director of Behavioral Health Initiatives, Community Schools, Oakland Unified School District
