Break the Cycle of Childrens Environmental Health Disparities (or
simply, Break the Cycle) is an annual collaborative
interdisciplinary research and training program involving
university students in academic tracks that focus on the impact of
adverse social, economic, and environmental factors on childrens
health, development, and education. The target populations are
communities where environmental hazards are related to
circumstances of social and economic disadvantage. Each student
develops a project that focuses on preventing or reducing adverse
environmental factors to benefit the children who live in these
communities. At the end of the project, the students present their
studies and findings at a national conference and write papers
which are then published. This book is the result of the 12th
annual Break the Cycle program. The projects cover a range of
factors that operate over a period of time and have an influence on
individual, community, and social perspectives. Most importantly,
they inform us about childrens environmental health disparities and
propose solutions to reduce health disparities in order to promote
health equity for all children.
