The National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH), Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice (DEHSP) prevents exposures to environmental health hazards to improve the health of all people in all communities through applied environmental public health science and practice. The mission of the National Environmental Public Health Tracking Program (Tracking Program) is to provide information from a nationwide network of integrated health and environmental data that drives actions to improve the health of communities. The National Environmental Public Health Tracking Network is a multi-tiered, Web-based system with components at national, state, and local levels. In collaboration with federal, state, and local partners, the Tracking Program identifies priority environmental health issues, determines key surveillance questions, and evaluates the utility of existing data for answering the question and informing the issue.

This Public Health Analyst I position currently best aligns with the Junior Consultant Labor Category and ideal candidates exhibit the ability to visualize, analyze, and convert data and experiences to meet performance challenges while confidently engaging in productive "Jugaad" and dialogue targeting mission success.

Additionally, the program needs staff skilled in program development, strategic planning, evaluation, facilitation, partnerships, and project management. The Tracking Program identifies priority environmental health issues, determines key surveillance questions, and evaluates the utility of existing data for answering the question and informing the issue. Selected data are integrated into the Network and used to describe temporal and spatial trends in disease and potential environmental exposures, identify populations most affected, generate hypotheses about associations between health and environmental exposures, and develop, guide, and assess the environmental public health policies and interventions aimed at reducing or eliminating health outcomes associated with environmental factors. Data are translated into information for targeted audiences and disseminated through a novel, innovative system of query panels, dashboards, info-graphics, and application programming interface.

The Public Health Analyst I shall have overall responsibility of the contract activities: planning, organizing, directing, controlling, staffing and reporting status, deliverables and schedules to the Government.

Note: a Public Health Analyst I may oversee several Task Orders at one time. The Public Health Analyst I shall provide technical assistance services to support the Tracking Program in accomplishing its mission. Additionally, when gaps in data are found, the Tracking Program collaborates with partners to develop standards for new data collections, develop models, expand the utility of non-traditional public health data, or develop new methodologies for using existing data.

The Public Health Analyst I shall provide facilitation and coordination of the technical teams along the following functional team thematic areas: state and national public health data systems and emerging standards; working with the state health and environmental agencies; and developing strategies for dissemination of information to key audiences. Facilitate and coordinate work-groups, teams and forums. Specific tasks may include, but are not limited to, organizing online meetings, developing agendas, providing virtual meeting audio and webinar services, and facilitating meetings, taking notes. Conduct and facilitate both virtual and in-person meetings, training, and seminars as needed to support program activities. Virtual meetings are ad-hoc while in-person meetings are typically twice a year.

Assist program in strategic and annual planning by obtaining and synthesizing feedback from work group, team, and forum members. Maintain knowledge management for the program by completing and organizing documentation from work groups, teams and forums and by maintaining a Web-based, secure site to host documents and tools for the program and its recipients.
