ARC and HRiA awarded Kresge Foundation grant

Sep 30, 2009

The Kresge Foundation has awarded HRiA a two year grant to support the Asthma Regional Council's Healthy Homes Promotion Project (H2P2). This funding will support three important components of this project across New England: 1) encouraging health insurance providers to finance home-based environmental interventions and asthma education, 2)encouraging governmental programs to adopt holistic and integrated healthy homes models via strategic planning and training; and 3) promoting national dissemination of our cutting-edge approaches and successes. We anticipate that this will improve asthma outcomes across New England. The grant period is Jan. 1, 2010 - Dec. 31, 2011.
