State Surveillance Portfolio

For over 20 years, NIOSH has provided technical and financial assistance to states to develop and/or enhance their occupational safety and health (OSH) surveillance capacity. In FY2010, the OSH state surveillance portfolio grew from 15 to 23 states, a 60% increase for these five year cooperative agreements. The map provides a geographical reference for the location and activities associated with each funded state program.
