The American Lung Association in California's San Bernardino office provides various asthma programs. The OAS PLUS program is our school-based asthma education program, which includes Open Airways for Schools, Kickin' Asthma, Asthma 101 and Exercise & Asthma. These classes provide the education and information necessary for students and their caretakers to better manage their asthma. We also offer a home-based asthma education program; a community health worker provides in-home asthma education and asthma friendly supplies. All of our programs aim to reach the many families affected by asthma.
