Query Builder for New Jersey Birth Data: Adolescent Births, Females Aged 15-17

Overview

Overview

The birth data in this NJSHAD query module come from the New Jersey Birth Certificate database. The database is maintained by the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, Bureau of Vital Statistics and Registration. The population data used for rate denominators were produced by the National Center for Health Statistics in collaboration with the U.S. Census Bureau. All data shown are for New Jersey residents regardless of where the birth occurred.
