Your Data, Your Stories
The mission of the Data Resource Center for Child and Adolescent Health (DRC) is to advance the effective use of public data on the status of children’s health and health-related services for children, youth and families in the United States by providing hands-on access to policymakers, MCH program leaders and professionals, family and child health advocates, and researchers.
This page is dedicated to hosting, collecting, and inspiring compelling examples of how data from the DRC is being used to make a difference. Included below are stories of DRC data use for education, policy work, and advocacy, sample templates for putting DRC state data into action to advocate for children with special health care needs (CSHCN), and instructions on how to share your story of DRC data in action.
