![]() About the NetworkWho We AreThe Michigan Network for Children's Environmental Health is a coalition of health professionals, health-affected groups, environmental organizations, and others dedicated to a safe and less toxic world for Michigan's children. Through education, outreach, and advocacy, we seek to protect Michigan's children from adverse impacts caused by exposure to widespread hazardous chemicals. Download the Network's general flyer (pdf). BackgroundIn November 2005, a conference called "Out of Harm's Way: Preventing Toxic Threats to Child Development in Michigan" brought together more than 150 health professionals to discuss the intersection between exposure to common environmental chemicals and childhood development, and clinical interventions to reduce neurotoxic threats throughout the lifecycle. The Michigan Network for Children's Environmental Health (MNCEH) was formed at the conference to work for a safer environment for Michigan's children. The Network continues to expand its membership and work. |
