Asthma ranks as an important public health issue in Wisconsin, and is routinely identified as a high priority in state and federal public health plans. Statewide asthma surveillance data demonstrate that such attention is warranted, and these data have helped identify populations where the burden of asthma in the state is particularly high. DHS comprehensively addresses the burden of asthma through surveillance, partnerships and interventions. Forming strong collaborations and partnerships with key asthma stakeholders around the state has been one of the program's greatest strengths over the past 15 years.
