October 2022: Direct From CDC/ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ Services

October 2022
Volume 85, Number 3

Editor's Note: The ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ strives to provide up-to-date and relevant information on environmental health and to build partnerships in the profession. In pursuit of these goals, we feature a column on environmental health services from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in every issue of the Journal.

In these columns, authors from CDC's Water, Food, and ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ Services Branch, as well as guest authors, will share tools, resources, and guidance for environmental health practitioners. The conclusions of these columns are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the official position of CDC.

Environmental health affects everyone. The air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink, and other aspects of the environment in which we live, work, and play all have a direct impact on our health. The ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ Nexus (EH Nexus) from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is a new communication network for sharing information about environmental public health topics.

The network was created to help CDC actively communicate about environmental public health with interested members of the public and public health colleagues whose work involves environmental health concerns. This month's column highlights the EH Nexus and its four pillars: webinars and conferences, newsletters, communication partners, and expanded outreach activities.
