The Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), with support from CDC’s National Center for Environmental Health, is pleased to announce that it has teamed up with Esri to provide data visualization training as part of the Environmental Public Health Tracking Peer-to-Peer Fellowship Program.
Designed to enhance capacity of states and territories not currently funded as part of CDC’s National Tracking Network, the newly upgraded fellowship program now prepares non-funded health agencies with GIS technology to support current initiatives in environmental public health tracking. Fellowship recipients will visit current CDC grantee sites to learn about the program, attend a National Tracking Workshop, and develop a pilot project that would help advance efforts to relate health outcomes with environmental hazards of concern. All applications must be received by 5 PM EST on Friday, November 2, 2012.
