This grant, offered by the EPA, seeks proposals to build capacity for addressing children’s environmental health, particularly in underserved and disproportionately impacted low-income communities, including minority and Tribal populations. Projects should demonstrate, implement, or expand innovative methods to prevent and reduce environmental exposures in critical child-occupied settings such as homes, schools, and child care facilities. Eligible capacity-building programs must be multi-media, addressing various environmental health hazards, and holistic, involving strong partnerships with multiple stakeholders. The focus is on developing comprehensive, community-centered approaches to improve environmental health outcomes for vulnerable children.
