The Arizona Health Survey can serve as an excellent resource for policy makers looking to find information about the health and well-being of Arizonans.  

The survey has a wide range of variables, from standard measures of health and demographics, to questions about a person’s lifestyle or behavior,  environmental factors affecting health, and more. Such data can help inform research and analysis.  Our data is intended to be shared.

The Arizona Health Survey does more than simply describe the health status of individuals living in our state.  It also provides data that can help us understand the reasons behind why Arizonans are (or are not) achieving health and well-being.

Policy makers may want to start by examining reports and videos that use data from the Arizona Health Survey. These reports not only summarize survey findings, but also discuss policy implications. Click one of the topics above to see reports, videos and research related to specific topics.
