California Health Interview Survey 2017 Data Release

​Ninez Ponce, Center director and CHIS principal investigator, and Todd Hughes, CHIS director, highlight the latest trends in insurance coverage, prediabetes, mental health need, and much more from the 2017 California Health Interview Survey. New topics covered in this upcoming release will include child prescription medicine use, teen technology use, e-cigarette and marijuana use among teens and adults, and -- just in time for mid-term elections -- the reasons why some Californians don't register to vote.
