The South Carolina State Library has partnered with the SC Department of Health and Environmental Control's Environmental Public Health Tracking (EPHT) System to educate library staff statewide about the system.EPHT is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) nationally funded program. Each participating state must track specific public health variables required by the CDC and also have some leeway to display state specific areas of interest.
The South Carolina EPHT program provides a user friendly platform for collecting and distributing data and information to help communities take action and make decisions to improve their health and environment.
