Office of Developmental Supports (ODS): Interactive Dashboard

Resources

Overview

This dashboard provides information on individuals who use services from the Allegheny County Office of Developmental Supports (ODS). To best understand the scope and role of ODS services, this dashboard includes data on demographic characteristics, diagnoses and the services and supports used by eligible, registered individuals. To offer a comprehensive view of service involvement for these individuals, this dashboard also includes data on additional human services and supports that falls outside of the ODS direct oversight.

Consistent and effective support requires a knowledge of who is receiving services and an understanding of how recipients use those services. This dashboard supports informed decision-making and collaboration among providers, community partners, policy makers and families by identifying patterns and gaps in service use — both within and between service systems. This information can guide strategic funding and service decisions —ensuring service delivery is responsive, equitable and aligned with the lived experiences of ODS service users. Ultimately, this dashboard has the potential to improve outcomes for service users in Allegheny County.
