Spanish-Language Resources for Asthma Awareness Month

May is Asthma Awareness Month. EPA has information in Spanish about asthma and indoor air quality at espanol.epa.gov/cai/recursos-para-la-calidad-del-aire-interio.

The site has information on many indoor air pollutants, including environmental asthma triggers, mold and carbon monoxide. If you’re working with a Spanish-speaking community to reduce exposure to environmental asthma triggers, this new checklist is useful. There also is guidance for cleaning up after a flood and improving air quality in schools.

For outreach and educational activities, many Spanish-language publications are available online at espanol.epa.gov/cai/publicaciones-sobre-calidad-del-aire-interior. Additionally, the National Service Center for Environmental Publications (NSCEP) has quantities of free Spanish-language indoor air quality publications, including those listed in the following table:
