Statewide client database

Several years ago, the Oregon Domestic & Sexual Violence Services (ODSVS) Advisory Council proposed that advocacy programs across Oregon adopt a uniform, electronic database platform. The advisors sought to standardize and streamline the secure collection and storage of individual case management data, while also easing the burden of tracking service provision statistics and other aggregate outcomes for grant reporting purposes.

We are pleased to announce that this dream is moving steadily toward fruition. The Oregon Coalition Against Domestic & Sexual Violence, funded by a grant from the Oregon Department of Human Services – Children and Families, is building and rolling out a database platform for the management and aggregate reporting of DV/SA client service data across the state.

Progress updates

It’s April and things have really ramped up with the Osnium OS-soft rollout. At this point there are three things that you need to be on top of to ensure your experience with the new database goes as smoothly as possible. Hopefully you have installed Osnium at your agency and have started to enter data so that you can learn the new database’s ins and outs. As we press forward, here are the things you need to be aware of and do.

We have crossed the finish line! We have reached totality! The Maple Leaf has landed! (Osnium is based in Canada)

As of December 14th, 2018, I am writing to inform you that our database has is ready to roll out. The customizations have been edited, tested, and mapped to the reports, and the reports are completed. Now comes the “WOW” moment where we start to see the fruit of our work come together to help our agencies in Oregon.

The coalition has signed a contract with Osnium Software to implement a unified client management and reporting system for community-based SA/DV advocacy providers throughout the state of Oregon. We’ve also hired Vanessa Willard, OCADSV Database Project Coordinator, to oversee the customization and roll-out process.

The Oregon Coalition Against Domestic & Sexual Violence has delivered its final report to state funders at the Oregon Department of Human Services – Children and Families and Oregon Department of Justice – Crime Victims’ Services Division. This report details the purpose of the proposed database platform, the evaluation criteria used, a summary of the evaluation process, and the coalition’s findings and recommendations. Click here to view the full report.

The Oregon Coalition Against Domestic & Sexual Violence has conducted a web conference to update stakeholders on the database platform evaluation process and inquire about programs’ specific needs and concerns. The recording of this web conference may be viewed here.

UPDATE 2014-01-08: Introductory Letter to Programs sent.
