In 2024, the DAETA Team conducted a comprehensive assessment of the youth system of care (SOC) in Oregon.

The resulting Data Report on the Oregon System of Care for Youth provided a comprehensive overview of Oregon's youth SOC, including areas where Oregon leads strongly and areas that need further development. This report was used to drive the System of Care Advisory Council's (SOCAC) 2025-2029 strategic plan.
