Community Issues Management

What is CIM?

Community Issues Management (CIM) is a web‐based system designed for local and regional organizations to frame, manage and take action on complex issues. CIM can be employed as a tool for use within organizations and as a tool for community engagement to foster participation in transparent, data‐informed and collaborative decision making. The foundation of this system is a process for framing issues through a wealth of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data, and mapping and reporting tools custom built for organizations to better understand how issues impact people and place. The CIM system allows users to access these defined issues through the CIM Library, to learn how organizations in their region and across the U.S. are confronting issues. Unique to CIM is a streamlined process to integrate and overlay local mapping data with state and national mapping data that resides in CIM’s Data Warehouse. Data can be organized around specific issues that CIM organizations or other user groups have identified.
