Description:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are separate public health federal agencies in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The mission of the CDC involves collaborating to create the expertise, information, and tools that people and communities need to protect their health—through health promotion, prevention of disease, injury, and disability, and preparedness for new health threats (http://www.cdc.gov/about/organization/mission.htm). The CDC seeks to accomplish that mission by working with partners throughout the nation and the world to monitor health; detect and investigate health problems; conduct research to enhance prevention; develop and advocate sound public health policies; implement prevention strategies; promote healthy behaviors; foster safe and healthful environments; and provide leadership and training. Thus, the CDC collaborates with the NIH's National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and other partners to promote sleep health.
