Fallen Timbers A

Young children are sensitive to the effects of chemicals in their environment. This talk will focus on protecting young children from environmental hazards at early care and education sites. We will introduce the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s Choose Safe Places Program. We will discuss environmental hazards that many people are familiar with including radon and lead. We will also talk about other factors that influence environmental health such as past uses of buildings and nearby industries. Throughout this presentation, we will provide practical recommendations on best practices that support child health in childcare and education facilities.
