Children’s Environmental Healthy Network (CEHN)

Our goal is to provide recommendations for solutions, policies and practices that will immediately benefit the health and well-being of children and staff in centers. Early learning and day care facilities are charged with taking care of our youngest and most vulnerable population. The presence of air and water-related contaminants can be particularly dangerous to our children’s physical and cognitive development. Our staff is trained by the Children’s Environmental Healthy Network (CEHN) to provide assistance along with expertise, tools, and financing to address and, if need be, mitigate problem areas.
