The Oregon EPHT Program is working to develop a statewide network of health and environmental data that will drive actions to improve the health of communities.

Oregon is also one of 17 states funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that comprise a larger national network of EPHT programs.

By bringing together environmental and health information sources, scientists, communities, policymakers, and the public will be better equipped to answer fundamental questions about the relationships between environmental exposures and health effects.
