## Description

The Annual Break the Cycle of Children’s Environmental Health Disparities Program (BTC) supports an interdisciplinary set of student-driven research projects that explore the social, economic, and environmental factors that adversely affect children’s health and well-being and generate creative strategies to mitigate or reverse those adverse factors and provide the children with greater opportunities for a healthier, more secure, and brighter future for themselves and for their children. Students who are selected to participate in the annual program are required to complete their projects, present their work at our annual conference, and write manuscripts on their projects for publication.

Since its inception in 2004, Break the Cycle (BTC) has partnered with over 80 university departments across 21 States in the US, as well as from 6 countries in Latin America and 2 countries in Africa, and has supported research for over 200 trainees. Annual BTC trainee projects are published in international journals and a book series on public health. Alumni of the BTC program rate their mentored research experiences highly and many pursue careers related to their Break the Cycle projects.
