Providing health data and information to policymakers

Focus Area Description

The Foundation works to ensure that accurate, adequate and accessible information is available to public, local and state leaders and policymakers so they can make informed decisions. In 1995, the Kansas Health Institute (KHI) was established to head this effort as an independent, nonprofit health policy and research organization based in Topeka, Kansas.

Focus Area Goal

Kansas has a policymaking culture that values decisions based on evidence-informed decision-making and accountability.
