MINORITY Youth and Families Initiative Facts and Figures


The Research and Evaluation Staff compile research and information related to disparities. We work with the state of Iowa and sites across the U.S. assisting with the analysis of data, evaluation, dissemination of information and providing technical assistance, training and organize conferences.


For a step-by-step explanation of the method for using relative rate indices, see the power point at:

DMC Resource Center. The DMC Resource Center encourages examination of population based rates to consider what an "acceptable rate" is in addition to the relative rate which is a measure of disproportionality relative to White rates.
