About the Philadelphia District Health
Welcome to Philadelphia District Health, the dedicated local government office committed to safeguarding and enhancing the health of all Philadelphians. Located at 2230 Cottman Avenue, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, our mission is to ensure equitable health opportunities by providing a safety net for those disproportionately affected by societal barriers limiting access to healthcare and essential resources.
Our efforts are guided by two advisory boards: the Board of Health and the Air Pollution Control Board, which steer our policy and regulatory decisions. Additionally, our Institutional Review Board (IRB) oversees research studies involving human subjects, ensuring ethical standards and participant safety.
The Medical Examiner’s Office (MEO) plays a crucial role in determining the cause and manner of sudden, unexpected, and unnatural deaths within Philadelphia, providing essential insights and data for public health interventions.
We focus on building a healthy future for our community with initiatives such as childhood vaccinations for diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis, and promoting the HPV vaccine to protect children for a lifetime. While the risk of bird flu (H5N1) remains low, we continue to monitor and address potential health threats.
In response to mosquito-related concerns, the Health Department will conduct spraying in Pennypack and Fairmount Parks to control the mosquito population and protect public health.
Stay informed about our latest activities and initiatives, including Mayor Cherelle L. Parker's recent signing of public health-related bills, as we work tirelessly to create a healthier Philadelphia for everyone.
