Data Release Rules
These resources provide more information for people interested in learning about how different states define the rules for what data can be released and what procedures are put into place to govern the process of requesting data. States currently define those rules differently, but work is underway to harmonize those rules. For more information about the work being done to harmonize the rules for data release, please send an email to amy.costello@unh.edu
