The Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) Data Policy Lab at the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research has worked alongside NHPI communities to address gaps within data and research and to ensure that communities are visible in the data, and that they have the access and training to use it.

Join us Thursday, May 28, when the @UCLAchpr Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Data Policy Lab unveils a new and improved NHPI Social Determinants of Health dashboard, which features county-level data on health and factors that influence health.

Using data from the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS), American Community Survey, and U.S. Census, the dashboard covers seven key topic areas: demographics, disability, economic indicators, education, health, housing, and veteran status. Select topics are available by NHPI subgroup, including CHamorro, Fijian, Native Hawaiian, Samoan, and Tongan populations.

This webinar will also feature 'Alisi Tulua, executive director of the Southern California Pacific Islander Community Response Team (@socalpicrt), and Luci Latu, assistant director of Taulama for Tongans, who will both share how accessible, culturally grounded data strengthens their advocacy, planning, and storytelling — and how they’ve used the Lab’s tools to support the communities they serve.

Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander communities aren’t monolithic — and neither is our data. From our California Health Interview Survey to our NHPI Data Policy Lab, we understand the power of data disaggregation. Visibility drives equity. #AANHPIHeritageMonth

According to the 2020–2024 CHIS, 86.6% of Asian Americans in California had excellent, very good, or good health. When broken down by subgroup, CHIS data showed a wide range: from 77.5% (Vietnamese) to 92.9% (South Asian). Explore our data in AskCHIS: https://healthpolicy.ucla.edu/our-work/askchis.

Our NHPI Data Policy Lab employs culturally guided, community-centric practices to provide community partners with data and data skills to achieve their goals. The Lab's dashboards include data on NHPIs and by subgroup, with new updates coming this month: https://healthpolicy.ucla.edu/our-work/nhpi-data-policy-lab.
