THE SEOW PREVENTION DATA PORTAL
The SEOW Prevention Data Portal is a comprehensive resource to support data-driven planning, implementation, and capacity building for substance use and mental health-related issues. The Portal functions as a centralized hub for access to critical information, supporting informed decision-making, strategic planning, and policy development across Connecticut. On the Portal, users can access epidemiological profiles on priority behavioral health issues, data stories featuring significant substance use and prevention topics, and other prevention products (e.g., presentations, fact sheets, maps, data charts). Connecticut’s State Epidemiological Outcomes Workgroup (SEOW) informs the work of the portal.
Connecticut’s State Epidemiological Outcomes Workgroup (SEOW) is a collaborative group of state agency representatives and key stakeholders committed to the identification, sharing and use of data to improve substance abuse prevention, mental health promotion, and behavioral health in general.
The SEOW is staffed by the DMHAS-funded Center for Prevention Evaluation and Statistics (CPES) and co-chaired by Dr. Megan O’Grady (UConn Health) and Angela Duhaime (DMHAS).
