South Los Angeles Health Status Indicator Project, 1990-1998 (Currently Unfunded)
This study will examine trends in racial and ethnic-specific rates for
17 health status indicators of Californians for the period of 1990-1998
(corresponding to goals set forth in Healthy People 2000) and will
compare the results with a recent analysis of U.S. data. Federal,
state, and county data will be used to evaluate California's
performance based on 17 indicators of heath status related to
mortality, disease incidence, and health risks for Non-Hispanic Black,
Non-Hispanic White, Hispanic/Latino, American Indian/Alaska Native, and
Asian/Pacific Islanders racial/ethnic groups.
