Environmental Protection Agency: Community Action for a Renewed Environment Program

HACU encourages institutions to apply for the following opportunity within the Environmental Protection Agency.

CARE is a community-based program that works with county and local governments, tribes, non-profit organizations and universities to help the public understand and reduce toxic risks from numerous sources. 

The objective of the CARE grant program is to work collaboratively within the community to investigate the effectiveness of the CARE 4-step process (as described in the CARE brochure at http://www.epa.gov/care/library/2008CAREtrifold.pdf which fosters a cross-Agency, multi-media approach to provide greater environmental benefits rather than either non-collaborative or traditional regulatory single media approaches.
