The Johns Hopkins Center for Public Health Preparedness (JHCPHP) is part of an integrated national system of centers that provides a continuum of accessible learning opportunities for public health workers around the country. Funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the JHCPHP provides training and education to personnel at the state and local health department levels, as well as in community-based organizations and other entities charged with carrying out CDC programs and the control and prevention of bioterrorism and infectious disease.

JHCPHP faculty and staff continually develop interactive learning activities in a broad range of preparedness-related fields, including radiation and dirty bombs, occupational health, food and water security, mental health, and cultural competence. Activities offered by JHCPHP include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Face-to-face and online training events 
• Seminars and conferences
• Ongoing resources: CD-ROMs, reference books and resource library materials
