Miami Soul of the Community Indicator Study
Knight Soul of the Community (SOTC) is a three‐
year study conducted by Gallup of the 26 John S.
and James L. Knight Foundation communities
across the United States. While Knight works
nationally and internationally, Knight's
Communities Program focuses on improving the
quality of life in the U.S. communities where the
Knight brothers owned newspapers. The study
focused on ten domains that were found to drive
community attachment at varying levels.
The Florida International University (FIU)
Metropolitan Center (MC), on behalf of The
Miami Foundation, has prepared a
comprehensive set of community indicators in
support of The Miami Foundation Soul of the
Community Project. The Miami Soul of the
Community Indicator Study is intended to provide
meaningful and measurable indicators for the ten
(10) drivers of community attachment as
identified in The Knight Foundation's Soul of the
Community 2008‐2010 reports.
