Welcome!

This website is designed to help you access many of the excellent publications produced by the California Department of Health Services in both print and electronic formats. For your convenience these publications have been divided into two types: 1) health education materials designed for the general public, and 2) technical publications designed for scientists and professionals. You may search for all publications or focus your search on one type by clicking the buttons in the box to the right. Access is provided to publications in three ways:

• By providing descriptive information about the publication;
• Ordering information; and
• Electronic links to documents (if available on the Internet).

The Health Publications Finder was first created to catalog health education materials and has now been expanded to include scientific and professional publications. Publications are being added on a continuous basis, but many publications may not yet be accessible through this website. You are encouraged to contact specific DHS programs for information about additional publications. Please note that forms are not included in the Health Publications Finder. For links to lists of some DHS forms, click Forms
