Programs: Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families: About

The Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families Campaign is a nationwide effort to build smart federal policies that protect us from toxic chemicals.

The campaign is a united effort among individuals and groups promoting the interests of labor, environmental justice, current science, state-based coalitions, parents, the learning and developmental disabilities population, breast cancer advocates, nurses and health care administrators, and national environmental groups. Environmental Health Fund coordinates this group and its research, field, science, policy, communications, and advocacy strategies.

Who We Are
Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families is a groundbreaking and growing coalition of diverse groups united by their common concern about toxic chemicals in our homes, places of work, and products we use every day.

What We Want:
Congress is proposing to repair the nation's badly broken chemical safety law. Using common sense principles and current science, the Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families campaign will work with Congress to reform our failing chemical management system. A reformed Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) would serve as the backbone of a sound and comprehensive chemicals policy that protects public health and the environment, while restoring the luster of safety to U.S. goods in the world market.
