CCI Makes the Case for Healthier Homes - Download the Report Now!
Pittsburgh has some of the country's oldest homes. Plus, we sit on a radon "hot spot" and steep hillsides with plenty of wet basements and summer humidity. Lead (paint, soil or water), radon, and mold commonly undermine our homes and can be harming our health - with lead poisoning, lung cancer and asthma triggered by mold. Most people don't know what's hurting them in their own house or apartment - or don't know that other cities and communities expect and get more from their home's health.
CCI's recommendations-developed in collaboration with experts and organizations from throughout the region-- point a path to what needs to be done. Help our region's leaders know that you care about these issues... read the paper, take the survey, and tell a friend.
You can get the paper and take action now.
