Action Plan

Evidence-based strategies:

Healthy home environment assessments:

Train volunteers, professionals, or paraprofessionals to help residents assess and remediate environmental home health risks and recommend low cost changes (e.g., improved ventilation, integrated pest management, etc.)

Lead paint abatement programs:

Eliminate lead-based paint and contaminated dust by removing or encapsulating lead paint, or removing lead painted fixtures and surface.

Integrated pest management for indoor use:

Support a four-tiered approach to indoor pest control that minimizes potential hazards to people, property, and the environment.
