Profile of Maryland Environmental Public Health Practice

---

All Marylanders deserve safe food and water, healthy air, and protection from environmental threats. In order to determine Maryland's capacity to ensure this healthy environment, the Profile of Maryland Environmental Public Health Practice project, an examination of local environmental public health capacities, needs, and future challenges, was initiated by the Johns Hopkins Center for Excellence in Community Environmental Health Practice. The Profile findings reveal a fragile, neglected, fragmented, and under-funded environmental public health infrastructure. However, during a time of increasing pressure on the Maryland environment, a dedicated and enthusiastic workforce offers a window of opportunity to enhance Maryland environmental public health protection efforts. As environmental public health threats continue to become more complex and as the current workforce's capacity is increasingly stretched, we must act now on the recommendations in this Profile to ensure the health and well being of Maryland for present and future generations.
