Pilot Program

The current PNHS pilot is designed for evaluative institutional review. It helps participating organizations assess whether representative PNHS outputs are useful in their context and provide structured feedback on relevance, usability, and feature priorities. Participation is no cost and creates no obligation beyond the pilot phase.

Current pilot scope

  • • Institution-facing review of representative PNHS materials
  • • Public, aggregated U.S. data only
  • • Current emphasis on K-12 school district review
  • • ZIP-code-based contextual assessment workflow
  • • Feedback-driven evaluation of usefulness and clarity

What the current pilot does not require

  • • No student-level records
  • • No personally identifiable student data
  • • No district software integration for pilot review
  • • No paid contract during the pilot phase
  • • No commitment beyond pilot participation

What a pilot is (and what it is not)

Pilot is:

  • • Evaluative review of current PNHS materials
  • • Feedback-driven validation of institutional usefulness
  • • A defined opportunity to review representative outputs

Pilot is not:

  • • A paid commercial engagement
  • • A guarantee of specific downstream outcomes
  • • A requirement to proceed beyond the pilot phase

What participants receive

  • • Access to representative PNHS pilot materials and demo workflow
  • • Institution-facing outputs for contextual review
  • • Onboarding guidance and pilot-related communication
  • • A structured opportunity to provide feedback on relevance and feature gaps

What PNHS asks from participants

  • • Brief context about the organization and intended use case
  • • Feedback on usefulness, clarity, and potential institutional fit
  • • Constructive participation during the pilot review process
  • • Optional written feedback or statement of interest

Pilot fit

The current PNHS pilot is especially suitable for school districts that want to review localized food-access and nutrition-context indicators using public, aggregated U.S. data. Additional pilot conversations may also be appropriate for public health, nonprofit, employer, and university settings where evaluative review of representative outputs is useful.

Review the current pilot materials

Explore the demo or contact PNHS to request pilot-related information and discuss whether the current institutional review workflow is aligned with your use case.

Current pilot-stage PNHS materials may be refined based on institutional feedback gathered during the pilot process.
