Florida Chamber Behavioral Health Dashboard

The Florida Chamber Behavioral Health Dashboard is a groundbreaking data visualization and analysis tool that aims to foster actionable insights into the state of mental health at the county level across Florida. Rooted in the Florida Chamber of Commerce’s dedication to enhancing residents’ quality of life and economic prosperity, this dashboard, and accompanying mental health initiative, stems from the Florida 2030 Blueprint, a comprehensive strategy to propel Florida to the world’s 10th largest economy by 2030. Recognizing the pivotal role of mental health in achieving this vision, the Florida Chamber of Commerce has embarked on a mission to position Florida as a national leader in mental health practices and outcomes.

Driven by the imperative to address the mental health needs of Florida’s diverse population, comprising over 23 million individuals and growing, the tool embodies a proactive and evidence-based approach to mental health care. An outcome of the collaborative efforts between the Florida Chamber Health Council and the esteemed Meadows Mental Health Policy Institute, the dashboard will support data-driven insights and the creation of targeted strategies, empowering business executives, policymakers, healthcare providers, and community leaders with the resources needed to champion mental well-being and foster a healthier, more resilient Florida.
