Assessment of Health and Safety Hazards in African American Low-Income Communities of Greensboro

The research project, based in low-income areas of Greensboro, presents a detailed protocol aimed at understanding the correlation between housing conditions and health. Through meticulous sampling procedures, the study evaluates the health status of selected housing units by measuring factors such as temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide levels, metal particulates, dust, and other air contaminants. This comprehensive approach not only seeks to provide empirical data on living conditions but also incorporates educational interventions. The ultimate goal is to enhance the living environment, ensuring it is both safer and healthier for residents.
