ATSDR's Partnership to Promote Local Efforts To Reduce Environmental Exposure
ATSDR seeks to build and sustain the capacity to evaluate exposures to hazardous waste across the country.
Releases from hazardous waste sites are a major source of harmful exposures in homes, schools, workplaces, and communities.
These exposures are often complex and may be difficult to identify and control.
Hazardous waste sites may involve various toxic substances, exposure pathways, and health impacts.
ATSDR’s primary goal is to keep communities safe from harmful exposures and related diseases.
To accomplish this goal, the agency works closely with partnering agencies to evaluate exposures at hazardous waste sites, educate communities, and seek new ways to better protect public health.

Keeping Half the Profits Beats Non-profits for Social Impact
Melbourne social enterprise Who Gives A Crap sold nearly 3 million rolls of toilet paper in 2014/15 and gave half the proceeds to WaterAid Australia, but co-founder Simon Griffiths says the donation would have been less had the startup adopted a non-profit model when it launched two years ago.
