America's Children and the Environment Story Maps
Children's environmental health story maps are interactive web based narratives. They discuss how children are affected by environmental hazards, what EPA is doing to protect children, and other steps that can be taken now to improve our kid's current and future health.
Each story map connects real-world issues with national data trends from America's Children and the Environment (ACE), EPA's comprehensive resource for tracking children's health in the United States.
