Project Overview
Data2Action Oregon (D2A OR) is part of and supported by the NIH HEAL Initiative® as part of the HEAL Data2Action Program (R33 DA059163).

Our Collaborations
This project will incorporate the perspectives, data, and suggestions of representatives from five perspectives. This will happen through group discussions, focus groups, surveys, and written feedback.
Our Co-Design Process
A co-design process will be used to co-create data products that make prioritized data available to local decision makers.
Our Evaluation and Dissemination Process
We will study the public health and service system impacts of our data products with a rigorous trial. We plan to learn more about data-driven decision making, system collaborations, and which data points are most valuable to local decision makers.
This work is in collaboration with numerous community partners, research consultants, and research colleagues at the University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA). We thank them for their valuable contributions to the project!
