Moving to Healthier Neighborhoods: Options for Local Advocacy (Meghan Hottel, Philip Tegeler, and Megan Haberle, May 2014)

May 1, 2014 by

A PRRAC Policy Brief (May 2014). By Meghan Hottel, Philip Tegeler, and Megan Haberle.

Excerpt: “Research has shown that children living in high-poverty, racially isolated neighborhoods face significant health risks. In response, advocates have often focused on improving the housing and neighborhood conditions that contribute to these heightened health risks. This Policy Brief will cover a complementary strategy to assist families to make voluntary moves to healthier housing and neighborhoods.”
