Dartmouth Health officials view access to housing as a key part of personal and community health, according to a Dec. 14 Dartmouth Health news release.
“The quality of the home environment can have a direct impact on a person’s health. For example, consider how exposure to lead paint or allergies to substances in your home environment can make asthma symptoms even worse,” Dartmouth Health Population Health Officer Sally Kraft, MD, said in the news release. “Having a secure and healthy place to call home can decrease chronic stress and financial hardship. Additionally, it’s important to expand access to affordable housing in order to attract needed healthcare workforce to our region. Investing in housing solutions provides health benefits to people and helps our communities thrive.”
