Online Event:  Cleaning for Healthy Schools Toolkit

(4th session in a series, CLICK HERE to view and sign up for other sessions)

 

Did you know: 25% of chemicals in the cleaning products used in schools are toxic and contribute to poor indoor air quality and smog, and cancer, asthma, and other diseases? Did you know that two states require schools to use green cleaning products?

The free, online Cleaning for Healthy Schools Toolkit will educate you about green cleaning. It can also be tailored to create state or local educational programs for agencies, education officials, workers, and parents and communities. The externally reviewed training tools are also ‘open-source’ and ‘industry-free’– in short, a unique, comprehensive program to advance policy and practices that help safeguard child and adult health, reduce the use of toxic chemicals, cost-effectively improve cleaning, and improve school IAQ.

Presented by Denise Bowles, AFSCME and Tolle Graham, MassCOSH/Healthy Schools Network
