Community Outreach and Education

coep

The Community Outreach & Education Program (COEP) of the Center for Research on Environmental Disease (CRED) develops educational materials and programs to inform students and adults about the risks, etiology and prevention of environmental disease. Public education and outreach has a critical role to play in communicating not only the CRED's research findings but also in providing practical translation of this data into accurate, trustworthy and useful information about risk reduction and disease prevention.
