The leadership of the OMI concluded early on that it would be difficult to rely solely on government recorded vital statistics as a way to know both the current conditions in the state as well as changes that may occur on a broad scale over time. Not only are there inherent difficulties in government systems for collecting vital statistics, the types of data most often collected with regard to marriage and family are not ideally suited to the needs of the Initiative.

Further, leaders of the Initiative desired specific information that could inform and refine the steps that are undertaken.
