Massachusetts Environmental Public Health Tracking (MA EPHT)
This website provides an opportunity to begin to more closely examine the possible links between environmental exposure and chronic diseases statewide and locally. We also participate nationally with other EPHT states to improve how we develop new data indicators, communicate data and trends, work on regional projects, and support public health actions.
Environmental Justice (EJ) is based on the principle that all people have the right to be protected from environmental pollution and to live in and enjoy a clean, healthy environment.
The Heat Education and Alert Tools (HEAT) response initiative aims to increase awareness of climate change and extreme heat, enhance preparedness for extreme heat events, and improve our collective response to these health hazards.
