MHO received a $30,000 Partnership Grant in 2002 from the United States Health & Human Services, (US HHS) Office of Minority Health (OMH) which grew out of previous initiatives examining Racial and Ethnic data collection methodologies in each of the six New England States. The NH funding was to conduct further study about the process that some NH DHHS data systems use to collect racial and ethnic data. The report was completed in October of 2002. The Executive Summary: NH Race and Ethnic Data Review (7 pages) provides a summary of that report.
