Kaiser Family Foundation

About Us

KaiserEDU.org is a website of the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation.  The Kaiser Family Foundation, a leader in health policy analysis, health journalism and communication, is dedicated to filling the need for trusted, independent information on the biggest health issues facing our nation and its people.  The Foundation is a non-profit private operating foundation, based in Menlo Park, California.

KaiserEDU.org was developed to provide access to resources and information on major areas of health care policy, particularly for students and faculty in health policy and related disciplines, as well as for anyone interested in learning more about health policy. The site provides a range of resources, including narrated slide lectures and collections of background materials, including research, data, and policy analysis, on the key issues at the forefront of health policy. The site also includes concise summaries of more narrow policy debates along with links to background materials, including policy reports, articles published in the peer-reviewed literature, and key data. Other features include a library of syllabi from health policy courses across the U.S., a compilation of fellowships for students and professionals interested in health policy, a summary of the major government agencies involved in health policy, and links to datasets available for further research.

KaiserEDU.org materials are prepared predominantly by staff of the Kaiser Family Foundation. Some materials are prepared by external experts in health policy. All resources on kaiserEDU.org are free. No registration is required for use of kaiserEDU.org materials; however, you can register to receive periodic email alerts when new materials are added to the site.
