Vision and Mission
Helping DHHS staff and stakeholders help people by providing reliable analytics
and data to make a difference.
The Office of Analytics (OOA) provides DHHS programs, the Governor, the Legislature, the media and other stakeholders a consistent location to request data to better understand and improve upon the performance of DHHS programs, support grant funding, drive policy, and inform the public.
Under the technical guidance of the Chief Biostatistician, the OOA serves as a single point of accountability for continual improvements to the consistency and quality of analytic products being produced and disseminated by DHHS.
The OOA is funded by transfers from various State programs to carry out core analytical duties required to support and inform those programs. Although all staff carry full workloads, OOA also allows for external agencies, researchers, community partner, and citizens to request ad-hoc data reports. All data requests received are evaluated individually and are fulfilled contingent on available resources.
Because DHHS values transparency, the OOA also hosts an array of publicly available data, which can be found in the Data Dashboards and Report Catalog. Before requesting an ad-hoc data report, please review these resources for your data needs.
