The ACBS is an in-depth asthma survey developed and funded by the Air Pollution and Respiratory Health Branch (APRHB) in the National Center of Environmental Health (NCEH). It is conducted each year with the respondents of the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System Survey (BRFSS) who report having received an asthma diagnosis. Data are available at the state level and include in-depth asthma data about adults and children from the ACBS as well as data from the BRFSS interview for those with asthma. Data for 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010 are available at http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/acbs/index.htm.
