Reports

VLDS makes it possible to tap into and analyze data that has been up to now unavailable. It was either too time-consuming or too costly to capture, quantify and dissect or simply not permitted to use for cross-agency research. With VLDS, the Commonwealth now has visibility to the data to answer key important questions that will streamline operations and maximize program efficiency.

These and other statistics are available from “Virginia's Behavioral Health Workforce,” a 16-paged visualization (viz) recently released by the Healthcare Workforce Data Center at the Virginia Department of Health Professions.
