Checklist Available for Safety of Children and Youth Living or Working on Farms through COVID-19 - June 18, 2020

The National Children's Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety worked with colleagues at CDC/National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health to ensure that special conditions for children were addressed in the new guidance document.
