| About
the Gateway
This
web-based tool brings together
key health and human services data and statistics. It
is designed to complement other government resources
such as FirstGov and FedStats. The Gateway covers federal,
state and local government sponsored information.
The Shortcuts
feature of the Gateway lists, and links to, major health
and human services surveys and data systems sponsored
by Federal agencies.
Datafinder is a special
feature of this website. It leads to web locations
which contain statistics and data. You can use the categories
provided to find topics of interest, or search using
your own words. Other approaches include searching
by an organization or survey name.
The
MetaDirectory is
a comprehensive list and description of the statistical
and surveillance systems supported by HHS agencies.
The
HHS Policy Information Center
contains a database of citations and abstracts (some
with full text) for government-sponsored research and
evaluation reports on topics such as welfare reform,
food safety, and homelessness.
Scientific Literature
links to CRISP and to PubMed. CRISP is a searchable
database of federally funded biomedical research projects
conducted at universities, hospitals, and other research
institutions. PubMed provides access to over 11
million MEDLINE citations back to the mid-1960's and
additional life science journals, and includes links
to many sites providing full text articles and other
related resources.
