Welcome to the Stone & Taney Counties Data Dashboard! In 2019, the Ozark Wellness Network (OWN it) was awarded a Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA) grant for the purpose of developing an integrated health network and providing access to data. With the help of the Taney County Health Department, Stone County Health Department, Christian Action Ministries, and other OWN it members, the idea of a bi-county dashboard was formed and foundational work was completed. Christian Action Ministries was then given the opportunity to further develop and implement the project through a grant from the Missouri Foundation for Health. A partnership was formed with the Center for Applied Research and Engagement Systems (CARES) at the University of Missouri to bring the concept of the dashboard to reality.
Today, the Stone & Taney Counties Data Dashboard serves as a gateway to data on key issues affecting your communities. In particular, it contains national secondary data (from trusted data sources such as the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey) arranged into the following categories: housing and families, childcare, transportation, food environment, digital equity, education, jobs, and health.
