Green and Healthy Homes Initiative

The Green & Healthy Homes Initiative is committed to the creation of resources programs, and policies to prevent childhood lead poisoning and home-based environmental health hazards. The coalition works in collaboration with families, community organizations, educators, government agencies, insurers, property owners, and health care providers to construct real, attainable and cost-effective means to create lead-safe and healthy homes. The Coalition is dedicated to the primary prevention of childhood lead poisoning and the creation of healthy home environments that eradicate environmental and social injustices and result in healthier children, better school performance, the revitalization of housing stock and more productive communities. Volunteer opportunities range from assistance with office duties to outreach and speaking engagements.
