JEH Instructions for Authors

Introduction and Scope The Journal of Environmental Health ( JEH ) advances the science and practice of environmental public health by publishing timely, relevant, and high-quality research and practical insights that inform decision- making, strengthen professional practice, and support a healthy environment for all. As the core publication of the National Environmental Health Association (NEHA), the JEH contributes to our mission to build, sustain, and empower an effective environmental health workforce. It serves as a trusted forum for disseminating evidence, elevating practice, and fostering thought leadership to protect communities and strengthen environmental health systems. Environmental health is both a science and a practice focused on preventing injury and illness and promoting well-being by identifying environmental hazards and limiting exposures across air, water, soil, food, and other settings. Environmental health

professionals apply this knowledge through investigation, assessment, policy development, education, and community engagement to reduce risks and improve population health. Reflecting this scope, the JEH prioritizes work that bridges research and application, with clear implications for practice, policy, and future study, supporting professionals who interpret evidence, implement interventions, and lead programs that safeguard environmental public health. We invite submissions from practitioners, researchers, educators, students, and policymakers that advance the knowledge of environmental health and its application. We encourage the submission of original research, applied and practice-based studies, systematic and narrative reviews, case studies, and reports on innovative programs, management strategies, and emerging issues. Commentaries, policy analyses, and other contributions that offer crucial insight into current challenges and solutions are also encouraged. All technical content undergoes peer review to ensure scientific integrity, relevance, and practical value for the environmental health community.

We are an open-access journal with no submission or publication fees.
