Association of Maternal & Child Health Programs

AMCHP supports state maternal and child health programs and provides national leadership on issues affecting women and children.

Maternal & Child Health Topics

Data and Assessment

AMCHP considers national and state issues, needs, policies, plans and programs relevant to the use of data and other kinds of information to assess needs, monitor health status and problems, develop policies and programs, and evaluate and assure the quality, efficacy and effectiveness of interventions designed to promote family health. AMCHP collaborates within and across agencies at the national and state level to address the need to integrate data, programs and policy for improved health among maternal and child populations. AMCHP also provides state leadership with information and assistance in building states' data capacity.

Data and Assessment activities are funded by cooperative agreements with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Division of Reproductive Health, and the Health Resources and Services Administration Maternal and Child Health Bureau.

Upcoming Data Trainings

AMCHP will be organizing four data trainings at the 2008 MCH EPI Conference this December in Atlanta. Please check back for more information and workshop applications in June.
