Strategies

Inform parents about lead exposure pathways and cleaning and hygiene techniques and undertake minor repairs or specialized cleaning

Facilitate mediation between tenants and landlords to resolve conflict and prevent eviction

Support a four-tiered approach to indoor pest control that minimizes potential hazards to people, property, and the environment

Provide permanent, basic rental housing with social services available on-site or by referral, usually for families with low incomes, older adults, veterans, or people with disabilities

Create designated tax districts that generate revenue to invest in affordable housing initiatives, blight remediation, and economic development efforts
