The Centers for Agricultural Disease and Injury Research, Education, and Prevention represent a
major NIOSH effort to protect the health and safety of agricultural workers and their families. The
NIOSH Agricultural Centers were established as part of a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) / NIOSH Agricultural Health and Safety Initiative in 1990. The Centers were established by
cooperative agreement to conduct research, education, and prevention projects to address the nation’s
pressing agricultural health and safety problems. Geographically, the Centers are distributed
throughout the nation to be responsive to the agricultural health and safety issues unique to the different regions.
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health produced a one page brochure about the Agricultural
Center Program. Download a copy of the 564KB PDF.
