Metro is offering a webinar on cleaning and disinfecting for at-home or school-based education on November 17th from noon -1:30 p.m. Please help us spread the word about this opportunity.
In these unprecedented times, boosting our children’s immune systems is more important than ever. During this webinar, we will highlight how to make decisions about cleaning and disinfection that will help you reduce the use of unnecessary toxic chemicals – at home, or at education centers. We hope you will join us for this presentation followed by Q&A session.
This webinar will cover:
Why it’s important to choose safe and healthy products to use in spaces where children spend time
How children are uniquely impacted by chemicals in cleaning and disinfecting products
How parents and educators can choose products that are safe, but also effective for cleaning and disinfection; including tools and resources
For parents teaching at-home, or for professional educators, we encourage you to participate in a pre-survey for this webinar at https://bit.ly/34xJ0cN ; responses are requested by November 10th.
For Master Recyclers and Metro-sponsored Environmental Promoters attending this webinar: we will be offering a digital educational outreach package after the webinar. This will include: a presentation, in PDF and Powerpoint file form, handouts, and talking points for doing outreach in your own communities.
Our community partners may offer this training in Spanish. If you, or someone you know, would be interested in attending a webinar for Spanish-speaking audiences, please contact Farrah at farrah.fatemi@oregonmetro.gov so we can develop a list of folks interested.
If you have questions, feel free to reach out to Farrah Fatemi (farrah.fatemi@oregonmetro.gov).
