Human Services & 211
Rhiza Labs helps human services professionals to more effectively track the services offered in a community, the facilities where they are offered, and the agencies that are offering them. By combining together many overlapping databases in a community, Rhiza helps professionals and non-professionals alike to make better referrals and decisions about the provisioning of services. Our software allows agencies to edit their own records, as well as quickly and easily pull content for display on their own websites.
Beyond just information and referral services, Rhiza’s software can also track usage of facilities and display other contextual information about the neighborhoods in which services are offered such as demographic information, school performance data and a wide variety of other community information from many trusted sources. All of the data that is viewable through our applications can also be downloaded in lots of useful formats (maps, print directories, Excel, XML, etc.) so it can be viewed using many common applications.
