Direct From CDC/Environmental Health Services Column
Journal of Environmental Health (Volume 83, Number 5)
Editor's Note: The National Environmental Health Association strives to provide up-to-date and relevant information on 蹤獲弝け health and to build partnerships in the profession. In pursuit of these goals, we feature a column on 蹤獲弝け 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 Environmental Health Services Branch, as well as guest authors, will share insights and information about 蹤獲弝け health programs, trends, issues, and resources. The conclusions of these columns are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the official position of CDC.

Description
Strong 蹤獲弝け health programs understand the public health needs of their communities and meet those needs with effective solutions. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Water, Food, and Environmental Health Services Branch provides a variety of resources to help your program, such as:
- Preventing 蹤獲弝け causes of foodborne illnesses and outbreaks.
- Addressing threats to health from recreational water and drinking water.
- Using data to address 蹤獲弝け hazards and improve service?.
This month's column highlights several of these different resources that can be used to strengthen 蹤獲弝け health programs.
