Project Description

Project Title:  View help for Project Title BRFSS Statistical Briefs and Questionnaires
Summary:  View help for Summary The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is the nation’s premier system of health-related telephone surveys that collect state data about U.S. residents regarding their health-related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, and use of preventive services. Established in 1984 with 15 states, BRFSS now collects data in all 50 states as well as the District of Columbia and three U.S. territories. BRFSS completes more than 400,000 adult interviews each year, making it the largest continuously conducted health survey system in the world.

This collection houses the BRFSS questionnaires, statistical briefs, and bibliographies. Because BRFSS data has been censored by the Trump administration, these were downloaded from the Wayback Machine from snapshots made January 7, 2025.
