Research: PIHS Preliminary Report

The Pacific Islander Health Study developed a scientific protocol to facilitate data collection among numerically small and hard to reach Pacific Islander populations. By comparing these data to national and state level health survey data on Americans generally, we have begun to paint a picture of the health disparities facing Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders.
