Some of the country’s leading authorities on health, human services and “open data” – and on the vital, growing connections among those fields – will convene in Sacramento to explore ways of using cutting-edge technologies and statewide information-sharing to tangibly improve the well-being of California’s residents.
For the second year, the Health and Human Services Open DataFest II is being sponsored by the California Health and Human Services Agency (CHHS) and the national Stewards of Change Institute (SOCI), with key support from the California HealthCare Foundation.
