Tracking Program Publications

What to know

The Tracking Program collects, integrates, analyzes, and disseminates non-infectious disease, environmental, and sociodemographic data from a collective of partners at the national, state, and local levels. We do this with the purpose of providing timely, local, accessible information that drives actions to improve community health. Our scientific publications empower environmental and public health practitioners, healthcare providers, community members, policy makers, and others to make information-driven decisions that affect their health.
