You Know Your Community’s Environmental Health Concerns – Let’s Work Together to Address Them
 
Is your community facing environmental health challenges? The Center for Environmental Exposures and Disease (CEED) and the Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute (EOHSI) want to partner with you to study and address these issues.
We will be offering grants up to $25,000 for community-engaged research projects, and we want to help you develop a strong, competitive proposal, which will be due on January 15, 2024. This is your opportunity to turn your community’s environmental health concerns into action-oriented research.

  • Examples of successful community-research partnerships
  • How to access scientific resources and expertise through CEED/EOHSI
Who Should Attend:
