What To Expect From a LCMP Cohort
Kits will be delivered to participants through a no contact exchange - either to your door or sent via the mail. The kit includes monitors for particles, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and radon. During the one-month-long cohort, participants monitor their indoor and outdoor air, and receive weekly feedback on their results. During the monitoring period, ROCIS participants can test the effectiveness of ROCIS-loaned equipment, including an induction stovetop and/or DIY fan-filters.
The virtual format has increased the convenience of participating through:
- No travel requirements (All meetings are online!)
- Flexible meeting times (There are two weekly online Cohort meetings, each with the option of attending in the morning or evening.)
- Shorter and more frequent meetings (Each meeting is 75 minutes)
- Opportunity for more household members to participate (Kids are welcome!)
Over the course of the virtual cohort, the ROCIS team covers a wide range of topics including:
- Accessing and interpreting air quality monitoring results
- Behavioral and technical interventions to improve indoor air quality
- Access to resources to track ambient air quality
- Health impacts of poor air quality
Cohort 52 will be from Thursday, Sept. 15 to Friday, Oct. 14.
