The Southeast Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Unit and Break the Cycle of Health Disparities, Inc. invites university students from all disciplines in the US and around the world to participate in our 2022-2023, 18th Annual Break the Cycle of Children’s Environmental Health Disparities training program.



Our Break the Cycle Program supports an interdisciplinary set of student-driven research projects that explore the social, economic, and environmental factors that adversely affect children’s health and well-being. Students are encouraged to develop creative strategies to reverse or mitigate those adverse factors and thereby improve the health and well-being of vulnerable children to Break the Cycle of Children’s Environmental Health Disparities and promote health equity for all children.

We invite interested students to submit a research proposal by

Friday, September 16, 2022, for consideration. Proposals are reviewed by the Break the Cycle faculty and decisions will be communicated by Friday, September 30, 2022.
