This initiative responds to a 2022 congressional mandate requiring the WTC Health Program to create a research cohort of individuals who were 21 years old or younger, including those exposed in utero, at the time of the September 11, 2001 attacks, and who were within a defined proximity to the WTC site. The Center’s primary mission is to build and sustain this cohort to enable long-term studies on the health and educational consequences of early-life exposure to 9/11-related environmental hazards, with a focus on developmental, cognitive, and lifelong health outcomes. It will integrate multidisciplinary expertise in epidemiology, environmental health, data management, and community engagement to ensure robust, representative research. The Center will operate through four core functions: planning, administration, and evaluation; information technology and data management; communication, outreach, and community engagement; and direct research activities. Community involvement is foundational, with an emphasis on transparent stakeholder communication and inclusive participation. The project aims to close critical knowledge gaps regarding how early exposure to the 9/11 disaster affects individuals across their lifespan, providing evidence to inform public health strategies and support services for affected populations.
