Has HUD been included in any of the housing resource/building changes as a part of the GHHI and Le Bonheur partnership?

Was the deadline extended from the RFP here? http://www.greenandhealthyhomes.org/sites/default/files/RFP%20Application%20Guide_EPA_11-08-2017_FINAL.PDF

For CHAMPS--what approach has worked best to integrate school nurses into your program? Do the CHWs bridge that gap?

Hi all,

I am curious what other asthma providers think of the latest article regarding Montelukast being possibly linked to nightmares and aggression ( link to article here:  http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/prp2.341/full ).  Has anyone seen this in their practice? 

Thanks for your thoughts and input!

I hear much about smoking being bad in federally funded multi family projects, and it is, management at my building say they would have issues renting if they went smoke free.  Although those of us who actually live in this buildings know how bad the environment is.  How come mold is so over looked, how come even when you complain about health issues from pesticides and breathing issues from pesticides they still come in for added applications living residents with no save place to go for days to weeks to ever again.

Aloha:Can someone direct me to evaluation tools or kit or guidemlines for our small asthma program?

I want to send a research proposal and to do so need a solid evaluation piece in my program which I dont have.

Is there a quality of life or other scale if I cannot pull ER visit frequency before and after education?

HI all, thanks so much for a very informative webinar. My question is for Bridget: Does HCSC provide asthma services to its Medicaid population? If so, do you receive any amount of reimbursement through Medicaid, or have you had any discussions with state Medicaid offices about this? Thank you!

Good afternoon all,

I work in a program that conducts work-related asthma surveillance associated with occupational or work-related exposures/triggers in adults. I am wondering: How often do parents/guardians report or mention work-related asthma during home visits focused on their children? Our program is looking to expand our outreach efforts and partnerships, ideas are welcome!

Thank you!

For Kathleen:  What is your advice to a Health Plan in New England for establishing a partnership with the local ALA Chapter?   Where to start?    How long did it take your organization to build your partnership with the ALA Upper Mid West?  Thanks!
