What the grant funds

ATSDR, through its Environmental Medicine & Health Systems Intervention Section, proposes to maintain and strengthen the PEHSU network in its role as a leading national source of medical information and consultative advice on environmental conditions that influence human health throughout the vulnerable stages of reproduction and pediatric development. The primary purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) intends to build upon established PEHSU capabilities and to reaffirm and strengthen collaboration between ATSDR, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the PEHSU National Program Office (NPO) recipient that will lead and manage day-to-day operations of the national PEHSU network. The recipient will work collaboratively with each regional PEHSU to strengthen effectiveness of the PEHSU network, meet program goals, and achieve targeted health outcomes. In addition, this NOFO has two (2) required components. Component 1: Building capacity among health professionals and environmental justice (EJ)/disadvantaged communities to address children's environmental health risks associated with COVID-19. Component 2: Developing educational materials on per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) for health care professionals and students to increase awareness of potential health impacts of PFAS, and to increase providers’ capacity to provide risk mitigation guidance to patients.
