Overview
September’s EH Nexus Webinar will focus on CDC’s National Environmental Public Health Tracking Network. The Tracking Network (www.cdc.gov/ephtracking):
- Brings data and important information together in one place, making it accessible and easy to share.
- Delivers information to track environmental health factors over time and improve the health of communities with data, visualizations, and interactive tools.
- Uses tools to identify communities at risk, inform policy decisions, and help everyone learn more about how the environment affects their health.
- Identifies an area’s local infrastructure, vulnerabilities, and resources to quickly establish priorities and plan proper actions during an emergency or disaster response.
This webinar will broadcast on Tuesday, September 14, from 1:00–2:00 p.m. ET via Zoomexternal icon. Closed captioning will be available.
