Department of Health and Human Services Grant: Enhancing Maternal and Child Health Data Access

Applicants must have significant experience with maternal and child health issues across the country and to be able to track changes in outcomes and health care services both nationally, regionally and within states through contributions to the development, analysis and dissemination of data in collaboration with MCHB. Additionally, applicants must have substantial experience providing real-time technical assistance that responds to a range of potential users, but particularly family and youth leaders and users who either do not have the resources or do not have the expertise to make appropriate use of the survey data. Applications that fail to show such experience will not be considered.

The overarching vision for the DRC is to dramatically broaden the valid and standardized use of national and state level survey data to assist national, state and family leaders to understand the gaps that need to be addressed in children’s health and to take action to advance positive health outcomes for children, youth, families and communities.
