  • Referrals to housing, environmental, and legal agencies for families.
  • Classroom education in Boston elementary schools to teach students about asthma and asthma management as well as assistance to schools in identifying and addressing environmental triggers
  • Printed health education and resource guides on asthma for people with asthma, their families, and the community
