Vision

Improving Kids’ Environment envisions a society that allows children to reach their full potential by:

• Protecting children from recognized, serious environmental health threats; and

• Providing families, and others with a responsibility for the health and development of children, the information they need to protect children in their care from environmental health threats, including threats that are potentially serious but are poorly understood.

Mission Statement

Improving Kids’ Environment (IKE) is a non-profit, advocacy coalition that facilitates tangible and significant improvements to children’s health through reductions in environmental threats to children. IKE will help children reach their full potential by working with citizens, non-profit organizations, governments, businesses, and others to:

1. Identify environmental health threats to children;

2. Ensure that parents and others who help children have effective access to information about these threats and the means to prevent them;

3. Support the activities of those organizations striving to remove, reduce, and communicate these threats; and

4. Promote practical means to remove or reduce recognized, serious threats that are not being addressed effectively.
