Description:As a core public health discipline, environmental health interventions fundamentally focus on preventing disease and creating healthy, supportive environments. In 2006, the importance of exploring the value of environmental health services was acknowledged with the report, Environmental Health Practitioners Developing Strategic Partnerships and Engaging Public Health Policymakers. This project builds on recommendations presented in this early report (National Center for Environmental Health, 2006).
This document was born out of early discussions of the National Environmental Health Partnership Council (NEHPC) as a potential component of a larger strategy for expanding and sustaining awareness of environmental health problems and programs. A number of individuals who participate in NEHPC offer this completed document with their endorsement. It provides an overview of the literature on the methods for economic evaluation of environmental health interventions.
The American Public Health Association provides logistical support to the Partnership Council funded through cooperative agreement 5U38OT000131-03 between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American Public Health Association. The content of this document does not necessarily represent the official views of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
