Putting Breast Cancer Out of Work Training Materials

Putting Breast Cancer Out of Work is a new BlueGreen Alliance project to prevent breast cancer and other chronic diseases by promoting safer alternatives to the current use of dangerous chemicals.

Since 2012, the BlueGreen Alliance has developed and refined an interactive curriculum that explains the role of chemicals in breast cancer and other chronic diseases, the need for new policies that regulate chemical use, examples of what cities, states, and leading companies are doing while we work for new federal protections and how workers and their employers can join the do-it-yourself safer chemicals effort.
