For me, among the most intriguing museums as a young
person had to do with those that surround the human
body.

The information below available from the Kaiser Family
Foundation  http://www.kff.org might make a very
valuable resource for health museums and/or museums
for People of Color interested in creating state of
the art exhibits concerning current women's health
issues.  The information requires Adobe in order to be
able to read, but, from there, you may be able to
glean educational insights that could be of great
value to your community.

Dear Interested Party:

The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation and The Jacobs
Institute of Women’s Health are pleased to announce
the availability of the latest edition of the Women’s
Health Data Book:

A Profile of Women’s Health in the United States
http://www.kff.org/content/2001/6004 .

Edited by Dawn Misra,Ph.D., this book offers the
latest data and trends on the wide range of health
issues that affect women across their life spans.

This book provides a clear and comprehensive roadmap
to the increasingly large and complex range of women's
health data available today.  It addresses social and
economic factors and provides up-to-date information
on chronic conditions, reproductive health, mental
health, violence, health behaviors, and access to and
quality of health services received by women.

To the extent available, information is also presented
on disparities in health status and access to care
among subgroups of women, highlighting the populations
of women who are at greatest risk.

Also included are three new facts sheets that
highlight the key findings from the data book. They
include one on overall trends and emerging issues for
women, one on data highlights for women of color, and
one on highlights for adolescents.

We hope this data book and the accompanying fact
sheets will serve as useful resources for you in your
work. Additional individual copies of this publication
(#6004) may be obtained by calling the Foundation's
publication request line at (800) 656-4533.  Multiple
copies may be obtained from the Jacobs Institute by
calling (202) 863-4990.

The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation
