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.
Activities Completed over Time in 24-hours (ACT24) is a web-based previous-day recall instrument that was designed to estimate daily summary values for physical activity and sedentary behavior, including energy expenditure, time spent sitting and in different types and intensities of physical activity.
These maps use combined data from 2017 through 2020 from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. Survey respondents were classified as physically inactive if they reported no physical activity outside their regular job in the last month.
Provides easy access to national and state level CDC data on a range of key indicators of health and well-being for older adults, including caregiving, subjective cognitive decline, screenings and vaccinations, and mental health. These indicators provide a snapshot of currently available surveillance information and can be useful for prioritization and evaluation of public health interventions.
The nation’s premier system of health-related telephone surveys that collect state data about U.S. residents regarding their health-related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, and use of preventive services.
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.
Publicly available datasets relevant to childhood obesity research, including obesity-related health behaviors, outcomes, and determinants; and policies and environmental factors.
A repository of data from environmental health academic, industrial, and government laboratories to support study design and data integration for novel meta analysis.
An atlas that displays places in the United States that adopted some form of a Complete Streets policy; includes the ability to download the policies.
A source of state-level data on adults with disabilities. Access information on six functional disability types: cognitive, hearing, mobility, vision, self-care, and independent living. Explore data on more than 30 health topics - including smoking, obesity, heart disease, and diabetes - among adults with or without disabilities.
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.
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.

Learn about proven, science-based methods to help people of all ages get enough aerobic and muscle-strengthening activity. Use these resources to develop programs and policies that are informed by evidence on what's effective, replicable, scalable, and sustainable.
Provides researchers access to high-quality, exposure-assessment services including, state of the art laboratory analysis of biological and environmental samples, statistical analysis, and expert consultation on exposure analysis, study design, and data analysis and interpretation. There is no cost to the investigator.
A biomarker validation study of internet-based and conventional self-reports for assessing diet and physical activity.
These modules are designed to complement the Measures Registry and Measures Registry User Guides and assist researchers and practitioners with choosing the best measures across the four domains of the Measures Registry: individual diet, food environment, individual physical activity and physical activity environment.
