The American Council on Science and Health is a nonprofit, pro-science consumer advocacy organization based in New York City, founded in 1978 by scientists to promote evidence-based science and medicine. It produces publications ranging from peer-reviewed health and environmental reports to online news content and a daily Dispatch newsletter, and it engages with media, policymakers, and the public through seminars and press events.

Its audience includes the general public and policymakers seeking reliable, science-based information amid a crowded media landscape. A professional staff with advanced degrees supports its work, supported by a large Board of Scientific Advisors comprising physicians, scientists, and policy experts who review reports and participate in educational activities. In 2026, the organization announced appointments to its Board of Scientific Advisors, reflecting ongoing governance updates.
