Great Resource from EPA on Environmental Health Issues in Child Care Settings. Check it out!

EPA has launched a new web-based resource directory of environmental health information for child care. 

On the website you will find links to a wealth of information (fact sheets, PPTs, trainings, assessment tools, reports, prevention and intervention guidance, etc.) on asthma, chemical hazards, environmental tobacco smoke, green cleaning, indoor air quality, lead, mercury, mold, pesticides and plastics.

We hope you find this website useful.
