Ucla Agile Visual Analytics Lab

The UCLA Agile Visual Analytics Lab (AVAL) empowers national, state, and local stakeholders to use evaluation data to make more timely and sound decisions impacting children, families, communities, and the workforces that serve them. We accomplish our mission by putting vital information into the hands of stakeholders in the form of data visualizations that efficiently and effectively meet their diverse and dynamic information needs. The AVAL team is uniquely positioned to provide such services by leveraging a dynamic mix of expertise in the areas of child welfare, juvenile justice, education, law, workforce development, program evaluation and policy research, data science, predictive analytics, geographic information systems, data visualization, project management, and knowledge of human visual perception. This rare mix of expertise and capabilities drives our ability to put knowledge in the hands of key stakeholders when they need it and how they want to consume it. Contact us at AVAL@luskin.ucla.edu
