Earlier this year, representatives from several localities met with the Secretary of Health and Human Resources to discuss challenges with data access, use, and sharing between the Commonwealth and localities in the human services arena. Following that meeting, a small work group was formed to identify challenges and areas of interest for further exploration. With the support of the Secretary and state agencies, several work groups are now forming to look at particular issues, interests and potential solutions. Organizers of these work groups are seeking participation from interested localities.
If you are interested in more information or would like to join a work group, please contact Katie Boyle (kboyle@vaco.org; 804.343.2514).
