Speakers:

  • Tracy Enger, Facilitator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Indoor Environments Division
  • Diane Rhodes, Asthma Awareness Education Program and Assistant Director, Health Services, North East Independent School District, TX
  • Anne Kelsey Lamb, Director, Regional Asthma Management and Prevention Program, CA 

Participants will learn:

  • Harness the power of evaluation to develop a business case, a value proposition and a communications strategy that generates broader acceptance of, compliance with and funding for IAQ management, with a specific focus on reducing asthma triggers.
  • Design and successfully implement a strategy to identify, collect and use data with low-cost, easy-to-use tools (e.g. School IAQ Assessment Mobile App) to start, improve or sustain a comprehensive IAQ and asthma management program.
  • Employ evidence-based strategies and proven practices that are being used in school-based health centers across the country to reduce exposure to environmental asthma triggers.
  • Replicate the strategies used by a school district that successfully reduced asthma attacks, increased attendance and improved academic performance through effective implementation of the “Communicate” and “Evaluate” key drivers of the Framework for Effective School IAQ Management.
