Parents, teachers and community leaders need information to help
protect children from environmental health risks at home, school
and play. And they’re likely to find what they need during the
Children’s Environmental Health Partnership Conference Oct. 9-11
in Atlanta.

The conference is a result of an agreement between the
Environmental Protection
Agency Region 4
with the U.S. Department of
Agriculture Cooperative
State Research, Education and Extension Service.

The CSREES provides county extension agents training and
materials to support children’s environmental health education
and outreach. They use material developed by EPA (displays,
newsletters, curriculums, videos, booklets, tip sheets).

The program will be in the Atlanta Federal Center, with lodging
in the Omni Hotel. It will begin 3 p.m. Tuesday afternoon, Oct.
9, and end at 4 p.m. Oct. 11.

The fee is $25 if registered by Sept. 26. After that, it’s $35.
If you have questions about registration, call Jorge Atiles at
(706) 542-8860, or e-mail him at jhatiles@uga.edu.
