Clean Air: Support Program for Homes at Wildfire Smoke Risk

This act aims to improve indoor air quality for individuals most vulnerable to wildfire smoke. It provides grants to air pollution control agencies to distribute free air filtration units and establish clean air centers. This initiative seeks to protect the health of residents, especially those with underlying health conditions, during smoke events.
Key points
Free Air Purifiers: Low-income households in wildfire smoke-prone areas with vulnerable individuals may receive free air filtration units for their homes.
Clean Air Centers: Publicly accessible locations will be established where residents can find refuge and clean air during severe smoke events.
Education and Support: The program also includes educational materials to help residents effectively use air purifiers and create "clean air rooms" in their homes.
