METRO LAB

UNCG and Guilford County joined the Metrolab Network to bring data, analytics, and innovation to local government. MetroLab Network connects government-university partnerships via a national, collaborative platform that facilitates the sharing of information and the scaling of technology and solutions across the country. By becoming members of MetroLab Network, UNCG and Guilford County have signed a memorandum of understanding and agreed to undertake at least three research, development and deployment projects addressing opioid abuse, substance abuse interventions and the prevention of homelessness through eviction diversion strategies.
