title: Prevention works for women: women's health at the CDC.
abstract: Actively protecting America's health and safety, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) focuses on four priorities: 1) strengthening science for public health action, 2) collaborating with health care partners for prevention, 3) promoting healthy living at every stage of life, and 4) promoting health globally. The CDC plays a critical role in promoting the health and safety of women across the lifespan, through programs on human immunodeficiency virus infection, injury, contraceptive safety and efficacy, adolescent health, smoking, breast and cervical cancer, cardiovascular disease, and reproductive health.
