Community Information Now (CINow) is a nonprofit local data intermediary dedicated to ensuring that Bexar County and other Texas communities can access, understand, and use local data to improve community conditions.  Our approach encompasses the discovery, collection, linkage, analysis, and communication of  local data on dozens of issues that matter to communities, like financial stability, health, education, and housing.

By providing trustworthy data and help understanding and using that data, CINow works to improve lives and narrow disparities by making data more accessible across Texas communities. We believe in the power of local data not just to inform the decisions and actions that shape a community, but to spark conversations, change minds, and fuel progress.
