In April 2020, BroadStreet and The COVID-19 Data Project partnered with Temple University's Center for Public Health Law Research (CPHLR) to look longitudinally at executive orders, health directives, proclamations, and policies related to COVID-19. BroadStreet adapted the CPHLR policy surveillance process from its COVID-19: State Emergency Declarations & Mitigation Policies data, enabling the collection of city, state, and US territory orders that were then reduced to quantitative and qualitative data to allow for simple access and analysis.
The final data release occurred on March 8, 2023 and includes more than 8,000 records from all 50 states and the District of Columbia, as well as six US territories, five tribal territories, 82 counties, and 152 cities.
