Community Health Education Unit (CHEU)
CHEU works to protect Californians from harmful environmental exposures found in everyday consumer products and in the spaces where people live and spend time.
What We Do
To help keep communities safe, our team provides clear, easy‑to‑understand health information so individuals can recognize risks and make informed decisions. We test products for potential hazards and strengthen local awareness by partnering with community‑based organizations to report harmful products and build capacity. In addition, our team shares information with health providers, community groups, and other interest holders to help prevent exposure and support the people most affected.
Our Focus
Our team leads three programs to reduce environmental exposure risks across California.
