Purpose: The Task Group Session of the Safety and Occupational Health Study Section will review, discuss, and evaluate grant application(s) in response to the Institute's Request for Application Number 725, entitled ``Childhood Agricultural Safety and Health Research.'' It is the intent of NIOSH to support broad-based research endeavors which will maximize the safety and health of children and adolescents exposed to agricultural production hazards by expanding the knowledge base regarding etiology; outcomes; intervention strategies; and the effectiveness of commonly utilized educational materials and methods. Research may address children directly involved in work tasks and/ or other children exposed to agricultural production hazards. The funded research projects should cover a variety of types of agricultural production in different geographical regions (e.g. tomato harvesting in California, dairy farms in Wisconsin, and blueberry picking in Maine). It is anticipated that research funded will promote these goals. Agenda items are subject to change as priorities dictate. Contact Person for More Information: Pervis C.
