Strategies

Provide tailored health information and assistance with decision making, behavior change, and emotional support via digital interactive programs

Provide outreach and support to assist those whose employers do not offer affordable coverage, who are self-employed, or who are unemployed

Notify partners exposed to an STI of their risk, encourage testing, and refer to services; also called contact tracing, or partner counseling and referral services

Clean, remove, replace, or cover lead contaminated soil with non-contaminated soil, mulch, sod, grass, or concrete

Replace lead plumbing material such as pipes, service lines, fittings, solder, flux, and fixtures with non-lead plumbing material

Regulate mental health insurance to increase access to mental health services, including treatment for substance use disorders

Prohibit the manufacture, use, and provision of single-use plastic bags, either partially or completely, and provide education and outreach to raise consumer awareness and support of bans
