• Description:
  The National Farm Medicine Center, and our National Children's Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety (funded by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health), partner with many individuals and organizations to improve the health and safety of adults and children living, working and visiting agricultural settings. Examples of this synergy in 2018 included: 1. Collaborating with fire departments to organize the Farm Safety and Rescue Area at Wisconsin Farm Technology Days. 2. Leveraging our partnership with the University of Wisconsin and Wisconsin Infant Study Cohort to provide unique, rural data on respiratory illnesses, allergic diseases and child health to the National Institutes of Health-funded Children's Respiratory and Environmental Workgroup. 3. Hosting the first national Child Agricultural Injury Prevention Workshop. John Deere and Westfield Insurance will sponsor workshops in 2019. 4. Responding to concerns for farmers' well-being by dedicating Auction of Champions dollars toward mental health first aid programs. We'd like to say "thank you" to our funding agencies, friends, supporters and colleagues with whom we cultivate such productive collaborations. Description provided by NIOSH
