PITC is proud once again to be  Presenting In The Community our annual Prevention Is The Cure educational series May 8 – 24, 2008

PITCJoin us from
May 8 – 24, 2008
, as we continue, for the seventh year running, to inform the public about risk reduction practices; the precautionary principle; the need for environmental research and personal lifestyle changes, in an educational and entertaining way.  We have a wide variety of programs taking place across Long Island that are sure to please.

Click here for schedule.

 

Prevention Is The Cure is an anti-disease, environmental group that brings fresh perspective to the causes of disease rather than ways of coping once diagnosed. We are convinced that disease is not caused by genes alone but by the interaction of environmental triggers and genetic predispositions.

We differ from other groups in seeking to cure disease by providing science-based information to the public, and promoting informed decision making, reduced exposure to environmental toxins, and community wellness.

The science has spoken! Harmful environmental toxins are causing disease. Instead of waiting for definitive “proof” of the toxicity of millions of chemicals and products, we advocate a precautionary health model – one that says it is “better to be safe than sorry.”

PITC uses this Precautionary Principle as both a scientific and analytical model for public health education and behavior modification.
