Go to your state's department of health and search for the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data (NY) . Locate a health condition or behavior that data is collected for, such as cardiovascular disease, immunizations, etc. Briefly describe the issue or behavior that you chose and some of the statistical information for your state.
What local organizations in your community communicate this data to residents (local chapter of the American Heart Association, local health department, etc.)? How do they communicate this information?
