The NSCH is the latest casualty of the new administration taking down major datasets from government websites. Between Archive.org and what I had downloaded for old projects, I was able to get all the 2016-2023 topical NSCH files and post them on an Open Science Foundation page.
I took this as a chance to improve the data- the government previously only made the topical Public Use Files available in SAS and Stata formats one year at a time, so I added a merged version for all available years in both Stata and Excel formats.
I hope and expect that the National Survey Children’s Health will be back up at official websites soon. But I expect that other datasets will be taken down permanently, so now is the time to download what you think you might need and add it to your data hoard– especially if you want anything from the Department of Education.
