Description | The Mold Busters program is a city-wide mold remediation initiative launched in 2019 in New York City public housing.

The program included bolstering staffing, improving training, focusing on evidence-based mold removal, and large-scale ventilation improvements. The intervention led to a significant reduction in asthma-related emergency room visits among public housing residents from 2021 to 2023. |
