About Vital StatisticsVital statistics refers to demographic data on births, deaths, fetal deaths, abortions, marriages, and divorces. At the Department of State Health Services, vital statistics functions are distributed within two organizational units: the Center for Health Statistics (CHS) and the Vital Statistics Unit (VSU). The Data Management team within CHS is responsible for developing, analyzing, and distributing public health data derived from records of vital events. The team also responds to statistical data requests and develops the Texas Vital Statistics Annual Report.
