The Health of Canada’s Children and Youth
The CICH Profile evaluates and summarizes data on the health and well-being of Canadian children and youth through graphs, tables and commentaries covering a broad range of health indicators. The online Profile is a living battery of information as well as an educational resource and vehicle for knowledge translation related to both child health and data collection and analysis.
Profiles are in the form of different topic modules which are developed and launched on a regular basis with information being updated as new data (e.g. Census, Community Health Survey) is released and made publicly available.
