As a sponsor of the Healthy Places Research Group, the CDC donated booth space at the 2009 National Environmental Public Health Conference to the group. This year's conference, Healthy People in a Healthy Environment, aimed to improve the nation's environmental health capacity by enhancing the expertise of:
* Public health, healthcare, and environmental professionals,
* Academic researchers, and
* Representatives from communities, organizations, and advocacy and business groups with a primary interest in environmental public health.
The 2009 conference also aimed to develop and encourage innovative strategies for addressing existing and emerging issues and to provide a forum for NCEH, ATSDR, and its many partners to share research, scientific, and program information about environmental public health priorities.
