Data Collection Information

Injury Core Capacity Development
Wisconsin is one of 28 states receiving CDC funding to conduct injury surveillance as part of an overall plan for injury control. The general injury data collected for the Core Capacity program examine causes of injury rather than the nature of the injury itself. Wisconsin is one of 10 Core states that do not yet monitor traumatic brain injury (TBI).
