Programs; Notice of Intent To Fund
Single Eligibility Award
A. Purpose
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) announces the intent
to fund fiscal year (FY) 2005 funds for
a cooperative agreement program to
improve State, tribal and local
environmental health infrastructure by
strengthening and diversifying
accredited environmental health
programs; preparing future professionals
to enter the environmental public health
workforce, and educating current
professionals in the core competencies
of environmental health, along with
new and emerging environmental health
technologies and methodologies;
increasing recruitment, enrollment,
retention and graduation rates at
accredited environmental health
programs; and increasing the number of
programs accredited by the National
Environmental Health Science and
Protection Accreditation Council
(NEHSPAC). The Catalog of Federal
Domestic Assistance number for this
program is 93.283.
B. Eligible Applicant

AEHAP is the only organization
eligible to conduct this program for the
following reasons:
1. AEHAP is the only organization
representing all of the undergraduate
and graduate institutions with academic
programs of environmental health
accredited by National Environmental
Health Science and Protection
Accreditation Council (NEHSPAC)
along with programs that are seeking
accreditation.
2. AEHAP, through its close
association with NEHSPAC, has
established the critical framework for
non-member institutions to gain
membership in NEHSPAC as accredited
members so that the technical
competence, managerial capacity and
leadership potential of accredited
undergraduate and graduate programs in
environmental health are increased.
3. AEHAP is uniquely positioned to
frequently communicate and consult
with all of the accredited undergraduate
and graduate programs of environmental
health, as well as those seeking
accreditation because those programs
are part of AEHAP existing membership.
4. AEHAP has the documented ability
to build effective partnerships and
collaborative relationships with federal
health agencies and appropriate
national organizations to increase
accredited environmental health
programs.
5. AEHAP provides the structure and
experience for instituting mentoring
programs to universities that do not
have accredited environmental health
programs, ultimately leading to
strengthened environmental health
systems at the State, tribal and local
levels. For example AEHAP, through its
existing affiliation with universities
with non-accredited environmental
health programs, can recruit, mentor
and train new programs, and can
encourage and promote growth of
qualified academic institutions whose
goal is to provide qualified entry-level
environmental health practitioners.
6. AEHAP member programs have
provided technical support and
consultation to State, tribal and local
environmental public health programs
through partnerships that have existed
for up to 35 years.
C. Funding
Approximately $164,000 is available
in FY 2005 to fund this award. It is
expected that the award will begin on or
before August 31, 2005, and will be
made for a 12-month budget period
within a project period of up to 3 years.
Funding estimates may change.
