We recently presented at North Carolina's 2024 Environmental Health Symposium. We traveled to New Bern, NC to attend the two day symposium from July 25th to 26th!
Organized by the North Carolina Environmental Health State of Practice Committee (NCEHSOP), the event was attended by representatives from NCEHSOP, the NC Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS), Environmental Health Specialists, and more. We had a great time meeting the NCEHSOP team, networking with symposium attendees, and listening to a plethora of keynote speakers on diverse topics such as "Dealing with Public Regulatory Agencies– A Coastal Perspective", "Translating NASA Earth Observations into Actionable Information", " Forty years finding lead in applesauce, rats in toilets, squatters living in crawl spaces, and odd odors in the air", and more.

Serving a population exceeding 10 million, NCEHSOP and NC DHHS jointly oversee the safety and well-being of the entire state. Their commitment to continuous education and care for their people is commendable. We had a fantastic time speaking at their event this year as well as having a vendor booth set up at the venue. Our participation at this event aligns with our ongoing commitment to public health and safety and we hope to attend their future events!
