Dealing with Transient Living Situations among Underserved Populations

We work with several community asthma programs that provides in-home interventions through multi-year home visits for an underserved community. Many of the programs do report that families are lost to follow-up but some programs diligently track the children. Many of the children live in transient households – for example, a child could move up to move three times in one year by living with mother, father or grandparents; as a result the program will provide three sets of home visits, trainings and supplies.
