Community Health Profiles Act
This bill, known as the Community Health Profiles Act, creates a pilot program at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to fund up to 25 local health departments, municipalities, or counties in building publicly accessible online platforms that display neighborhood-level health data. The program prioritizes jurisdictions serving medically underserved, low-income, or environmentally burdened communities and requires grant recipients to integrate data from multiple sources including federal, state, and local systems covering topics like housing, education, and health outcomes. All data submitted to the new National Neighborhood Health Data Repository must be de-identified and aggregated to protect privacy while allowing national comparisons across jurisdictions. The initiative includes requirements for technical assistance, independent review of data methodology, and a final report to Congress on program outcomes within four years.
