Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Units National Program Office

The Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Units (PEHSU) National Program Office is implemented by the Public Health Institute and its partner, the Association of Occupational and Environmental Clinics (AOEC) through a five-year cooperative agreement with the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) and support from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). PEHSU is a network of leading experts in science-based information in the pediatric environmental health field. The PHI-AOEC team facilitates and amplifies the capacity of the PEHSU network to prevent and mitigate hazardous environmental exposures during fetal development, childhood, adolescent development, and the preconception period. The NPO builds on the PEHSU network’s successes and evaluates the reach, impact and effectiveness of the PEHSU’s activities, especially as it relates to underserved communities.
