Synopsis
The Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) is soliciting applications from eligible parties for an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cooperative agreement to provide financial assistance to an eligible organization for a pesticide safety program, including training and education, aimed at reducing exposure to pesticides for agricultural workers, their families and the agricultural community. The grantee will conduct a national program to educate farmworkers about how to reduce risks from pesticides. As part of this program, the grantee will also train pesticide safety educators who will work with farmworker service organizations, growers and other members of the agricultural community in key rural, agricultural areas with high pesticide use and large numbers of farmworkers to conduct interactive pesticide safety programs for agricultural workers and their families. The grantee may utilize existing EPA approved worker and children protection pesticide safety training and education materials or may develop new and/or improved materials to address pesticide safety issues for farmworkers and farmworker children. All training materials should be targeted at the low literacy, predominately non-English speaking agricultural worker population. This announcement provides qualification and application requirements to those interested in submitting applications for fiscal year 2015 through fiscal year 2019. Eligible applicants include: states, U.S. territories or possession, federally recognized Indian tribal governments and Native American Organizations, public and private universities and colleges, hospitals, laboratories, other public or private nonprofit institutions, local governments, and individuals and international entities.
Eligibility
See Section III of the announcement for additional eligibility information.
