Yes, CHAMP has worked with community partners to launch the Healthy Homes Initiative in early 2015.  This group includes city /county codes and housing professional members such as Habitat for Humanity.   On behalf of this group, Le Bonheur applied for and received a Strengthening Communities grant which allows for this group to plan for development of a process to refer families to existing housing agencies and to advocate for changes in policies and codes. In our work with GHHI we will be utilizing the partnership to build a more robust environmental component of the CHAMP program and to scale up, and also seek a SIB.

Additionally,  Le Bonheur CH is helping to fund and supporting the establishment of a Medical Legal Partnership to help families with a variety of issues, including envinronmental concerns.
