The Healthy Homes Coalition provided a Partnership Award to Maria Martinez from the Roosevelt Park Neighborhood Association for her constant support and ongoing efforts to protect children from environmental health hazards in the home.
The City of Grand Rapids and Get the Lead Out! partners have been awarded $4.6 million in renewal funding to continue fixing homes to protect children from lead poisoning. The Healthy Homes Coalition will receive approximately $100,000 each year for the next three years to support its CLEARCorps program, an important outreach strategy that educates parents and homesowners and connects them to resources.
