National Survey of Children’s Health and National Survey of Children with Special Health Care Needs Chartbooks
Funded and directed by MCHB, the National Survey of Children’s Health and the National Survey of Children with Special Health Care Needs were conducted every four years prior to 2016. Beginning in 2016, MCHB combined the two surveys into a single, redesigned survey (retaining the name National Survey on Children’s Health) which is now conducted annually. The survey provides annual data on multiple aspects of children’s lives—including physical and mental health, access to quality health care, and the child’s family, neighborhood, school, and social circumstances.
