Excerpt

The National Survey of Children’s Health (NSCH) is the largest national and state-level survey on the health and health care needs of children 0-17 years, their families, and their communities. With funding and direction from the Health Resources and Services Administration’s Maternal and Child Health Bureau, the NSCH is conducted annually by the US Census Bureau as a mailed survey with web and paper response options completed by a parent or guardian. NSCH Data Briefs are designed for a wide audience and present basic descriptive statistics on a variety of topics.
