Disability and Health Data System
March 9, 2012
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) introduces Disability and Health Data System (DHDS). Disability and Health Data System is an online interactive system that helps quickly translate state-level, disability-specific data into information that can be used by state health departments, national disability and health organizations, policymakers, researchers, educators, and others.
In conjunction with Association of University Centers on Disability (AUCD), CDC will present two educational webinars:
