Our Mission

The Healthy Early Life Environments lab in the department of Health and Kinesiology investigates the ways in which environmental factors at home, in daycares and schools, and in neighborhoods contribute to health from infancy through childhood. Our goal is to improve children’s health and ensure that all children grow up in healthy environments.
