Children's Environmental Health Disparities Fact
Sheets
EPA is pleased to announce the availability of
four new fact sheets on children's environmental health disparities.
These new fact sheets address disparities in secondhand smoke
exposure and asthma among African American and Hispanic American
children. Each fact sheet includes important information on actions
parents can take to protect their children and positive actions EPA
and other organizations are taking to address each specific
environmental health issue. The intended audiences are parents and
community-based organizations working on environmental health issues
of specific minority populations.
These new fact sheets are the first set in a
series. EPA plans to develop fact sheets on environmental health
disparities among Asian and Pacific Islander American and American
Indian children.
