NCCOR's Catalogue of Surveillance Systems

The National Collaborative on Childhood Obesity Research (NCCOR) recently launched the Catalogue of Surveillance Systems, which describes in detail existing surveillance systems that collect data related to childhood obesity.

It provides one-stop access to more than 75 surveys and other data sets, allowing users to search and select surveys that provide a wealth of data at the national, state, and local levels on a range of variables, including school policies and health outcomes, as well as eating and exercise behaviors. Health officials at the city and state level also can find data related to their programs.
