Valley Initiative for Development and Advancement (VIDA), a Mercedes, Texas-based nonprofit that helps low-income, unemployed and underemployed residents secure high-skilled, high-wage jobs, utilized NAPCO Research to develop its impact report last year. Evan West, data analyst at NAPCO Research, shared how — with the nonprofit's data and his team's own research — they determined these key data points:
- 92% student persistent rate.
- 83% student graduation rate.
- 62% student wage increases.
- $15.69 return on investment to the community.
