Title
COEH Project Funding from 1999-2001
Description
These pages document the various projects that Hunter College's Center for Occupational and Environmental Health (COEH) worked on between 1999 and 2001. In addition to listing funding totals and sources, the sheet includes the Center's various partners, the goals of each project, and the progress made as of July 1999.
As made evident here, COEH was involved in a variety of efforts that teamed them with labor unions, public employees, college students, and community groups, all in pursuit of increasing public health awareness at work and home. Projects covered such diverse topics as asthma and childhood lead poisoning to hazardous materials disposal.
