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.
