What is PRECEDE

Welcome to PRECEDE! The Public Repository to Engage Community and Enhance Design Equity (PRECEDE) is an open-source dashboard that makes it easier for architects and designers to access health, socioeconomic, and environmental data to improve design outcomes.

By leveraging access to several public health databases—such as the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, the Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Census Bureau, and others—PRECEDE enables design professionals to better understand site-specific health considerations.

The streamlined access to critical health data, educational resources, and design strategies that PRECEDE offers can facilitate community engagement and create a healthier built environment.

Our commitment to design equity continues here.
