Healthy Homes

The "Healthy Homes" model promoted by the National center for Healthy Housing (NCHH) is a concept that promotes safe, decent, and sanitary housing as a means for preventing disease and injury. The "Healthy Homes" model is based on the Seven Principles of Healthy Housing, which are to keep a home:

-  Dry                  -    Safe

-  Clean              -    Contaminant Free

-  Pest-Free       -    Maintenance

-  Ventilation
