Deadline Extended: OWH Prize Competition!  HHS Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals (EDC) Innovator Award Competition: Register and apply by Jan. 31, 2022 The HHS Office on Women's Health (OWH) recently extended the deadline for a $1.3 million cash prize competition to recognize programs that increase understanding of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and their risks. Research shows EDCs, which interfere with the body's hormones and are linked to adverse health effects, disproportionately impact Black or African American women. To address this disparity, OWH will award cash prizes to programs that improve understanding of the risks associated with EDCs and offer populations served effective resources and solutions for how to mitigate their EDC exposure risks. Save the Date! Prize Competition Informational Webinars OWH will host information sessions for organizations to learn more about the EDC Innovator Award Competition. We look forward to having you join us at one of the three sessions below. Please share this information widely with your networks, so that together we can improve the health of all women! |
