  4. Public Health Injury Surveillance and Prevention Program PHISP has three primary objectives: • Build a solid infrastructure for injury prevention and control; • Collect, analyze, and use injury data; and • Implement and evaluate interventions.

  5. Public Health Injury Surveillance and Prevention Program • States with TBI Surveillance Programs • CO, MN, OK, UT • States with TBI Service Linkage Programs • CO, MN, OK, RI, SC

  6. State Disability and Health Capacity Grants • Develop and utilize a consumer-driven advisory board and a strategic plan for the Disability and Health program. • Work closely with state Healthy People coordinators to integrate people with disabilities into their state’s public health agenda. • Coordinate with the state Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance team to assess risk behaviors and health status by age, gender, and ethnicity. Coordinate with other health department divisions to include people with disabilities in health promotion activities and to make clinical preventive services ADA accessible.

  7. State Disability and Health Capacity Grants • Collaborate with universities, UCEDDs, centers for independent living, advocacy organizations, vocational rehabilitation and senior or elderly services to facilitate health promotion efforts targeting people with disabilities. • Inform the public about employment, independent living, access, transportation, physical activity, assistive technology, peer support and other state initiatives to improving the health of people with disabilities e.g. statewide annual conferences. States with D & H grants: AR, CA, DE, IA, KS, MA, MN, MT, NC, NM, NY, OR, RI, SC, UT, WA • http://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/dh/DHstateprograms.htm

  8. State-Based Examples of Network Innovation, Opportunity, and Replication (SENIOR) Grants • Assesses and sustains health-related needs, activities, and partnerships occurring between state health departments and state units on aging for ensuring the health of the nation's older adults and to support health promotion and disease prevention programs for older adults at the state and local level. • AZ, CO, FL, IA, MA, NC, NJ, NY, OR. PA, SC

  9. AUTISM SURVEILLANCE • Projects track the number of children who have an ASD, conduct studies to find out what factors make it more likely that a child will have an ASD, and offer education and outreach programs for researchers, families, and others affected by ASD • AL, (AR), FL, MO/IL, (NJ), SC, (UT) ADDM • (CA), CO, MD/DE, NC, PA CADDRE

  10. Public Health Preparedness The Centers for Public Health Preparedness (CPHP) program was initiated in 2000 to strengthen terrorism and emergency preparedness by linking academic expertise to state and local health agency needs. The program has grown to become an important national resource for the development, delivery, and evaluation of preparedness education. Within the CPHP program, colleges and universities provide preparedness education to public health workers, healthcare providers, students, and others. http://www.bt.cdc.gov/training/cphp/

  12. University Centers of Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Research Topic of Interest (RTOIs) • facilitating state-based surveillance and research of birth defects and developmental disabilities; • developing educational resources and curricula for health care practitioners, researchers, and trainees; • disseminating materials and information to state public health departments, policy makers, and advocates; • strengthening expertise in the fields of birth defects and developmental disabilities through training of professionals in public health and related fields http://www.aucd.org/ http://www.aucd.org/projects/NCBDDD/rtois.htm Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina

  15. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey NHANES assesses health and nutritional status of children and adults, combining interviews and physical examinations. Public use data released in two-year increments continuously http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes.htm

  16. Children with Special Health Care Needs – SLAITS The primary goal of this module is to assess the prevalence and impact of special health care needs among children in all 50 States and the District of Columbia and to evaluate change since 2001. http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/about/major/slaits/cshcn_05_05.htm
