<title>Allyson Kelley wins national award</title>
<link>http://billingsgazette.net/articles/2008/11/09/news/business/90-achievers.txt</link>
<description>Allyson Kelley, Rocky Mountain College director of Title III, has been named a 2008 Children's Environmental Health Champion by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Kelley said she represented Rocky Mountain College, which was one of only 12 organizations across the country to be honored for its work to help protect children from environmental health hazards.

Through her work, Kelley helped reduce tribal children's environmental health hazards. At the time, she was RMC Native American Studies project director. She launched and managed a number of successful programs through Rocky Mountain College's department of American Indian Affairs.

Kelley has been directly responsible for removing 7,736 pounds of hazardous and dangerous chemicals from 16 Indian country schools. She has developed and taught environmental health courses for Rocky Mountain College's tribal college partners. She is an advocate for children's environmental health issues ranging from childhood asthma to poverty and overcrowding.

Earlier this year, Kelley was named a Healthy Kids Healthy Schools Hero, one of five people in the region to be honored this year. The annual award recognizes those who work to help protect students and teachers from chemical hazards in schools.</description>
