Children's Health Valuation Handbook

Author

Listed:
  • U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

Abstract

The Handbook is a reference tool for analysts conducting economic analyses of EPA policies when those policies are expected to affect risks to children’s health. Because the state of knowledge surrounding the valuation of children’s health is still in it’s infancy, this document is designed to be more informative than prescriptive.
