Article Publication Date
Summary
ASTHO, in partnership with the Alzheimer’s Association, has released a report highlighting processes from the Healthy Brain Initiative (HBI) Data for Action Project. As part of this project, state health departments participated in a nine-month peer-learning program, in which they:
- Conducted data analysis related to brain health, dementia, and/or caregiving
- Produced a tool/infographic for strategic dissemination of resulting analysis
- Shared results with key governmental decision-makers, organizations, and community members
The Data for Action Toolkit is a self-guided resource designed to equip users to use data to improve health outcomes related to brain health and caregiving in their communities. State health departments can use this information in numerous ways, including for health assessment and health improvement planning, grant applications, budget discussions, policy reports, and more.
