The mission of the Community
Outreach and Engagement Core (COEC) is
to effectively translate environmental
health sciences research findings into
practical health promotion, disease
prevention information, tools and
resources for our target audiences. We
are particularly interested in
translating environmental health
information that concerns susceptible
populations, including minority and
underserved communities that are
disproportionately affected by
environmental contaminants and
exposures.
The COEC will develop and evaluate
effective communication strategies that
will reach target audiences through a
variety of mechanisms suggested by
target audiences including online
learning, puppet shows, websites,
workshops, and targeted education for
physicians using innovative outreach and
education mechanisms. The outreach and
education materials and information
developed will be distributed for
national implementation.

our COEC by following us on
