#### Calculations

1. PEARS retrieves all viewable Quarterly Effort records that match the current dashboard filters.
2. Grand Challenge Total records are grouped by their critical issue (grand challenge) name.
3. For each critical issue, the panel sums ethnicity demographic fields: Hispanic/Latino, Non-Hispanic/Latino, Prefer Not to Respond, and Unknown.
4. A stacked bar chart is displayed where:
   * The x-axis shows the critical issue names.
   * Each stacked segment represents an ethnicity category.
   * The segment height represents the contact count for that ethnicity.

#### Additional Notes

* Grand Challenge Totals are a component of the Quarterly Effort module and represent aggregate contact counts by demographic group.
