The National Environmental Public Health Tracking Network (Tracking Network) brings together health data and environmental data from national, state, and city sources and provides supporting information to make the data easier to understand. The Tracking Network has data and information on environments and hazards, health effects, and population health.
The Alcohol Policy Information System (APIS) provides detailed information on laws pertaining to alcohol and recreational use of cannabis in the United States at both state and federal levels. APIS also provides dashboards and visualizations to assist research, analysis, and evaluation. They system was developed to encourage and facilitate research on the effects and effectiveness of alcohol-related public policies in the United States.

Clinical guidelines from the Health Resources & Services Administration for infants, children, and adolescents that are age-specific, are based on the best available scientific evidence, and help increase the quality of primary and preventive care.
National trends data and key measures of progress in cancer prevention and risk factors including tobacco, physical activity, diet, sun, environment, genetic testing, sleep, and weight.
CDC data and tools on health conditions and social determinants of health, such as income, educational level, and employment, that can help focus efforts to improve community health.
A repository of data from environmental health academic, industrial, and government laboratories to support study design and data integration for novel meta analysis.
A digital repository providing a single point of access to resources and research findings in National Institute on Drug Abuse's National Drug Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network.
An interactive tool designed to help researchers and practitioners: (1) develop a 'logic model' or diagram for their research or practice question; (2) select the dissemination and implementation D&I model(s) that best fit(s) their research question or practice problem; (3) combine multiple D&I models; (4) adapt the D&I model(s) to the study or practice context; (5) use the D&I model(s) throughout the research or practice process; and (6) find existing measures to assess the key constructs of the D&I model(s) selected.
A monthly peer-reviewed journal that publishes research and news articles on the relationships between the environment and human health, including basic research, epidemiologic studies, longitudinal human studies, and more.
The Environmental Justice Index (EJI) uses data from the U.S. Census Bureau, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to rank the cumulative impacts of environmental injustice on health for every census tract. The EJI delivers a single environmental justice score for each community so that public health officials can identify and map areas at risk for the health impacts of environmental burden.
A searchable database of evidence-based cancer control programs designed to provide program planners and public health practitioners easy and immediate access to program materials in areas such as cancer screening, diet and nutrition, sun safety, and public health genomics.
Searchable collection of scientifically-based resources on mental health and substance use, including Treatment Improvement Protocols, toolkits, resource guides, and clinical practice guidelines. Compiled by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) for clinicians, educators, policymakers, and other audiences.
A comprehensive fall prevention toolkit for Veteran's Affairs (VA) facilities, including a falls notebook, assessment tools, podcasts, and handbooks for military personnel.
This resource helps public health and health care organizations measure primary care clinics’ readiness to set up new or enhance existing programs to increase cancer screening. The guide provides adaptable resources for collecting, evaluating, interpreting, and using data to develop practical plans for use in primary care clinics. This Field Guide is designed for CDC’s Colorectal Cancer Control Program award recipients and clinic partners, but can be adapted for other cancer screening and chronic disease programs.
This National Cancer Institute database provides researchers with information about behavioral, social science, and other scientific measures organized by associated constructs. GEM aims to promote the use of standardized measures for prospective research and facilitate the ability to share harmonized data resulting from the use of standardized measures.
Visualize data and locate information critical to understanding minority health, health disparities, and their determinants. Data are collected from public health surveillance systems by using either their published reports or public use files.
