Because asbestos is such a dangerous substance, it’s important to seek information and resources to help you understand and effectively address asbestos-related concerns. The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is a federal public health agency that offers valuable guidance and support in this area. Here are some details to help you access their information and other resources:
- Contact ATSDR: To obtain more information or seek specific guidance regarding asbestos exposure, you can contact the ATSDR directly. They can be reached at the following numbers:
