Northwest PEHSU serves as a source of information and guidance for community members with reproductive or pediatric environmental health concerns. We can help identify situations where there is high risk for environmental exposures, answer questions about possible health effects of suspected or confirmed exposures, provide advice on preventing or reducing harmful exposures and work with health care providers to manage care if an exposure has occurred.
