Award Date: 09/28/2023
Project Title: Utilizing Privacy Preserving Record Linkage with Parent Agency Data and Statistical Agency to Inform Programs and Policies (NCSES/NSF)
Project Performer: NORC at the University of Chicago
Project Partner: Datavant
Award Amount: $748,869.00
Objective: This project explores the development of a data sharing agreement between a federal statistical agency and its parent agency, deploys an open-source privacy-preserving record linkage (PPRL) tool to perform the linkage, and uses a secure environment to analyze the resulting linked data file. This project will inform linkages across the federal government, including within-agency collaborations, by developing agreements and deploying PPRL as a model to improve the availability, quality, accessibility, and interoperability of data sharing.
Period of Performance: September 2023 – September 2025

|---|---|---|---|
| The Government is interested in a research demonstration project for the National Secure Data Service (NSDS) to utilize a privacy protecting record linkage tool to link two disparate sources, create an analytic dataset that can be used to answer questions that could not be answered with either source alone, and develop a data sharing agreement between a federal statistical agency and its parent agency. | 06/21/2023 | 07/12/2023 |
