We are excited to launch a new learning opportunity for Nutrition and Healthy Lifestyles grant partners! The Michigan Health Endowment Fund teamed up with Pivot Data Design to provide a seven-month-long learning program aimed to strengthen your organization’s evaluation and data storytelling capacity. We have so many exciting things in store, including this online course platform that has been custom built for your team’s learning! Over the course of the next seven months, we will be releasing three courses, one course at a time. Additionally, we will supplement the courses with virtual workshops, peer learning opportunities, and individual coaching. 


Our first course focuses on evaluation planning, with nine videos around Evaluation Design, Logic Models, and Data Collection. Each module includes some toolkit items that have been uniquely designed to help your team plan for future evaluations. Scroll down to our courses to learn more.

Hi, we are Pivot Data Design!


Meet the Pivot Team! Pivot Data Design focuses on data visualization and storytelling for nonprofits and foundations. We are centered in and driven by your evaluation needs and interests and intend to build on your existing strengths. Our role is to be stewards of learning, not “the experts.”

Throughout the Harnessing the Power of Data program, you will get an opportunity to meet a number of Pivot team members. Our team embrace’s a commitment to promoting a more just world where everyone’s well-being counts, our interdependence is nurtured, and our success is shared. We believe that we can develop more equitable systems by building the capacity of others to collect, analyze and utilize data.

We hope that our team’s commitment to and passion for the work inspires your learning journey. Dig into the courses to learn more about your instructors.
