The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $1,953,437 Project Grant under CFDA 93.865 (Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) to the Regents of the University of Michigan. The grant aims to create a comprehensive, open-access data dashboard of state-level sexual and reproductive health (SRH) policies spanning from 1973 to 2028. This dashboard will facilitate rigorous research on the associations and causal pathways between state SRH policies and health outcomes.
The project has three key objectives: 1) compiling comprehensive state SRH policy data by collecting and aggregating approximately 90 state-level policies related to abortion, contraception, and sex education; 2) enhancing the usability of the data by building a user-friendly dashboard with visualization capabilities; and 3) disseminating the dashboard through peer-reviewed studies and methodological guidance. The University of Michigan will collaborate with sub-awardees at Temple University, University of California San Francisco, and Rutgers University to execute the scientific activities and ensure the dashboard's usability and dissemination.
