I am using Trello to coordinate a teams' initiatives. How can I see all projects and statuses in one place to see how we are doing vs. looking at individual cards?
@Brett Yeager there are a few good tools for looking at cards across boards. My favourite is Placker. You can see all boards in a team, but there's no "status" information there.
You can see all cards assigned to a team member (that you have access to) by just going to their cards view, eg.:
https://trello.com/iaindooley/cards
replace "iaindooley" with any username. I also have created an integration called Benko Board which creates a better cards view (and integrates with Gmail):

You can also link board to cards and keep progress notes at the project level on project cards, with linked project boards providing finer grained detail:

But what it comes down to is this:
Depending on how you're using Trello, what constitutes a "full view" and "project status" will change. This is Trello's greatest strength but also one of the things that makes it most complicated to get started with.
The great thing about Trello is that you can come up with how you want it to work and either take those actions manually or add automation into the mix via the API (eg. Trellinator) or Power Ups such as Unito and Butler to customise how information is presented and your various internal workflows.
Screenful Dashboard for Trello can provide such a view out-of-the-box. Below is an example of the Task Status view, which shows each individual with the number of tasks Not started/In progress/Done, and the number of tasks due. You can click through from the numbers to see the corresponding Trello cards. In this example it's pulling data from three different Trello boards.
You can switch the grouping so that you can get the same list per Trello board instead of individual.
You can learn more about that specific dashboard view from the Tour page.
