The Indianapolis Foundation Is Turning Data Into a Catalyst for Ending Homelessness

See how The Indianapolis Foundation built what every housing initiative needs: a single, shared system to align partners, track what matters, and tell a story that drives real change.

Tracking and communicating the impact of our homelessness initiatives was siloed and cumbersome—until Metaimpact. Now we integrate data from multiple sources and tell a powerful story paired with dynamic data visualizations. It’s easy to align stakeholders and show how investments are saving lives. Metaimpact isn’t just a tool—they’re a partner in solving big problems.

WHAT IS METAIMPACT

The Operating System for Collective Housing Impact

Gather Data from Anywhere, Across Any Partner

When critical housing data lives in disconnected systems, no one gets the full picture. Metaimpact enables you to collect data from any stakeholder and any system, map, standardize, and connect fields from across systems, and bring to life in one unified view.

Give Everyone a Seat at the Same Table

When everyone’s working in silos, there’s no shared table to align around. Metaimpact gives funders, providers, and public partners one space to set goals, coordinate action, and track progress—together.

Showcase Impact with Data and Lived Experience

When funders and partners only see part of the story, momentum stalls. Metaimpact helps you combine outcome data and lived experience—side by side—to tell clear, human-centered stories that drive alignment, investment, and action.
