The Center for Health Statistics is Oregon's Vital Records Office. Oregon law requires all vital events that occur in Oregon, such as births, marriages, divorces, and deaths to be recorded, registered, and filed with our office. The office is also responsible for certifying, amending, and issuing these vital event records.
The Health Statistics unit in our office is responsible for compiling and analyzing the data from vital records. These data are used throughout the state and nation for program planning and policy development.
