Additional material such as slides, videotapes, and HCWH pins are present as well. In New York State, Health Care Without Harm focused on environmental concerns in health care, particularly in hospitals. CEC collected research material about environmental issues in health care dating back to 1994, two years prior to the founding of the national Health Care Without Harm campaign in Bolinas, California. The earliest records documenting CEC activities in the HCWH campaign were those related to dioxin and incineration activities. As its activity level increased, CEC became involved in efforts to stimulate environmentally friendly purchasing policies and improve waste management in hospitals, which led to publications such as Environmentally Preferable Purchasing and "Greening" Hospitals, as well as a conference called "Cutting Costs, Reducing Waste, and Buying Smart". Outreach records discuss mercury reduction, waste management efforts, worker safety, and patient safety issues. A significant amount of the records document activity in New York City, particularly after a grant-funded coordinator was hired to focus on advocacy in this part of the state. CEC's records include an Environmental Curriculum for Healthcare Administrators completed in 2002.
