Rhona (from Region 1 EPA) held a wonderful community event in Trotter Park, Dorchester, MA. I just wanted to let everyone know how impressed I was with a family being managed by Boston Medical Center. The parent and the children were very informed; they received in home services and intervention from public housing (GO BOSTON MEDICAL CENTER!) One particular youth Ishmael seemed very interested in the asthma management presentation and came back for more! He will make a great community liaison.
On another note the Pioneer Valley Asthma Coalition in Springfield is having a picnic Aug 31st.
Best Regards
