NotesThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is the primary federal agency for conducting and supporting public health activities in the United States. CDC does not endorse or recommend any products or information; it does support public health efforts to design and build active communities that make it easier for people to live healthy lives. The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design for Neighborhood Development (LEED-ND) is one of those public health efforts.
