SAVE-THE-DATE!!

Join us as CACHET co-Hosts this seminar in person:
Silent Spring 2.0: Adverse impacts of neonicotinoid pesticides on human and wildlife health
CACHET would like to share our Save-the-Date for an in-person symposium taking place on May 21, 2024 at 9 am at the UIC School of Public Health, with a virtual option to expand our audience nationally. Our goal is to focus as much attention to this issue as possible; therefore, we will be inviting the public as well as Illinois policymakers. Illinois is a leading user of neonicotinoid pesticides, and we’re hopeful that our legislature can muster action to address the health threats posed by these chemicals.
