What Makes a Healthy Home?
A Healthy Home is...
- A safe, decent and sanitary home that prevents disease and injury
- Dry, clean, ventilated, free of pests and contaminants, well maintained and thermally comfortable
- Affordable and accessible to all people, regardless of age or ability
The importance of healthy living conditions cannot be overstated. Living in a clean and hazard-free environment contributes to the overall well-being of individuals, particularly children. MassHousing's programs for homeowners empower families to create safer and healthier environments for themselves and their children.
