The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking applications for
community-based scientific research to assess cumulative impacts from
multiple combined and interacting environmental stressors upon human health
in underserved communities.

Environmental health disparities or inequities caused by cumulative impacts
from disproportionate exposures to chemical stressors (i.e., pollutants)
and non-chemical stressors in underserved communities are of particular
concern to EPA. Previous research efforts have explored the cumulative
impacts of inequalities in environmental stressors on health and their
implications for environmental and public health policies. However, there
is still a need for fit-for-purpose, systematic and practical methods for
application of cumulative impact assessment to inform local policies,
programs, and decisions.

This RFA is a follow-up of the EPA STAR RFA, “Cumulative Health Impacts at
the Intersection of Climate Change, Environmental Justice, and Vulnerable
Populations/Lifestages: Community-Based Research for Solutions”
<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWJzY3JpYmVyX2lkIjoiOTc1NTkyNzk1IiwiYnVsbGV0aW5fbGlua19pZCI6IjEwMSIsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpkaWdlc3QiLCJsaW5rX2lkIjoiMzE5NjQ1Njc0MSIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMzA2MjAuNzg1MDMwMTEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5lcGEuZ292L3N5c3RlbS9maWxlcy9kb2N1bWVudHMvMjAyMS0wOS9zaGMtY2xpbWF0ZS1jaGFuZ2UtYW5kLWVqLXJmYV8tZmluYWwucGRmIiwiZW1haWwiOiJjZnJvc2FsZUBpdS5lZHUifQ.nvrfpGeBOWE0xREQmXQtO5xoWNASn1l9Zh030zzuo6o>.
The RFA aims to make forward progress in how practical community-based
solutions or programs/policies can be shaped and implemented by using
cumulative impact assessments to mitigate environmental health disparities.

This RFA seeks research that is national in scope and addresses the
following two research areas that are required:

   1. Propose cutting-edge, multidisciplinary research to improve health,
   well-being, and quality of life outcomes by assessing and addressing
   cumulative impacts resulting from combinations of chemical and non-chemical
   stressors in underserved communities. Investigate how the scientific
   information can be used to develop effective cumulative impact assessment
   approaches and/or methods. Identification of specific health outcomes and
   key stressors (both chemical and non-chemical) are required.
   2. Propose research to investigate how cumulative impact assessment
   approaches and/or methods can be used to shape better informed practical
   programs, policies, and decisions to eliminate environmental health
   disparities.
