The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS) has launched the Child Behavioral Health dashboard as part of its commitment to enhance the well-being of children and families in North Carolina. A team from the Sheps Center, led by Dr. Paul Lanier, contributed to the development of the dashboard by preparing the Medicaid metrics, and organizing and analyzing the data.

This publicly available tool consolidates data from multiple sources, providing key metrics on indicators of need, child behavioral health diagnoses, and utilization of behavioral health care. Stakeholders, including policymakers, providers, and the public, can use this dashboard to identify and address gaps and disparities in behavioral health services for children.
