English: NCEH protects people’s health from environmental hazards that can be present in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the world that sustains us. We do this by investigating the relationship between environmental factors and health, developing guidance, and building partnerships to support healthy decision making. NCEH is the nation’s leader in Environmental Health. We demonstrate that leadership through our standard setting laboratory sciences in areas such as biomonitoring, environmental health services in areas such as food and water safety and lead poisoning prevention, health surveillance and epidemiological research, and emergency responses in affected communities.

As the nation’s premier environmental health resource, CDC’s National Center for Environmental Health plays a vital role in protecting the critical resources that provide a foundation for a healthy future: the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the world that sustains us.
