General Data Requests
If there are specific LACHS data or analyses you need that are unavailable on our
website, our staff can provide them. We routinely fulfill customized data requests
for community-based organizations, advocacy groups, researchers writing grant
proposals, and government agencies. Turn-around time is usually a minimum of 2 weeks,
but varies depending on the nature and complexity of the request.
Please call (213) 240-7785, Monday through Friday, for further assistance.
Data Requests for Research Collaborators
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health is interested in making the
best possible use of LACHS data and in furthering collaborations with academic
centers and other institutions. To this end, the Health Assessment Unit provides
survey datasets to researchers interested in conducting their own analyses. Requests
to use the LACHS non-public use data set are considered on a case-by-case basis, and
require submission of a brief proposal describing study aims, the analysis plan, and
plan for dissemination of findings. We also require documentation of data security
measures and willingness to cooperate with DPH staff. For more information about
accessing the LACHS dataset, please contact Dr.
Gigi Mathew (gmathew@ph.lacounty.gov)
or Dr. Susie Baldwin (sbaldwin@ph.lacounty.gov).
