Clearance is provided contingent on CDC advising its grantees/contractors of the change in wording of the race/ethnicity and asthma questions that were made during clearance. Dissemination of the aggregate data set and statistics generated from the aggregate data set will always be accompanied by the following caveats: ÂThese data were collected for program management purposes. The data are not generalizable at the national, state, or local level. Furthermore, because inclusion criteria vary across grantees, comparisons of aggregate statistics across programs can be misleading (i.e., state policies and practices for blood lead testing vary and local priorities drive decisions regarding which homes receive assessments for other housing hazards). However, descriptive statistics can be used to compare changes overtime in a given area when the method by which housing units are chosen for inclusion remains the same. With a thoughtful understanding of the approach used to include housing units in a given location, HHLPPS can be used to make associations between the number of individuals in a given area and a specific housing hazard or health condition and geographic descriptors such as poverty, age of housing, tenancy, and health conditions."
